Two years ago, when the gay marriage law was passed New York, we got married aga. Tell about the gay muny New York Cy. J: What we’ve seen over the years is the -ghettoisatn of New York’s gay scene.

When I moved here 1997, we would go to gay bars, Fire Island and other spac where we uld ‘be gay. ’ There’s always been a big muny New York and was never the most dangero of ci to be openly gay.

IS JOSH GROBAN GAY? WHO IS GROBAN’S GIRLIEND 2023?

But, we always felt more fortable to go to plac where you didn’t have to worry about any potential homophobia. The days, there are fewer and fewer gay bars New York. We know many openly gay upl their early to mid-20s who re a lot ls than we did at that age.
