Moscow. 24.03.2013. To the mall and back.
Excuse me for my english. Actually i have a question for americans. I always wondered how life in San Francisco is. Ofcourse i have seen it in many TV shows and stuff but i still want to know how you guys really live. Tell me something about it. I mean things like if you are gay and you walk with your boyfriend around or you dress like a girl, what would be reaction? Not only about gay people, everything.

The best place to be gay in the US is in the privacy of your own home.

We hate fags. You may get away with it in some places for a while, but in most places, being openly gay will get you the beating you so richly deserve, in the midwest and much of the south, it will get you killed.

I'm pretty sure it is. SF is most likely gay sex everywhere. I don't live there or been there but It sounds pretty fucking gay.

>>467513982

Typically the larger the city, the more "gay tolerant" it will be, with exception of many of the southern states of course (Alabama, Mississippi, Missouri, Georgia, Louisiana...but why would you want to live there anyway?) I can only really speak for Texas, but Austin or Dallas would be your friendliest place to be gay in Texas, but it's still looked upon as taboo to be openly, in-your-face gay.

We appreciate the more subtle gays, but there are certainly gay areas in the city where you can be the biggest queen you want to be. But from what I hear, most gays hate those super queens anyway..

DFW signing off

>>467515673

new york stat or NYC? in manhattan it is more tolerated in various places, but again, up on the east side, you would be better off keeping it behind doors. Should be OK in The Village and central from there up to Times sqaure and Central Park, north and east of there is dodgy.

New York State is a whole other question ... I believe they issue hunting permits for gays ... limited to shooting no more than 8 a day.

in america, we dont have our faces covered in scarves, hidden behind jackets.

we can actually see each others faces.
when walking down any street, the people here actually say "hey" or "hi" as they pass you.
its normal for people to stoop down and pet your dog, and create conversation.

the universitys are heaven on earth. beautiful women that blush if you compliment them. they are also very attracted to foreigners. they have this urge to help them, give them directions, introduce them.


the US is great. we actually are one of the few places that are happy on this earth.
if i knew about this place, and lived anywhere else, i would fight to come live here.
its just that good.

I studied in Switzerland and I'm not in trouble living in russia as well. But just look at this. It is depressing.
>>467527318
That is correct.

Missouri native, Kansasfag here.

This guy speaks the truth. There are gays everywhere here (in the midwest), but we're only open when we're with our bretheren - like a gay bar or something. In general public though? Hell no.

The further south you go, the least accepting they become. Except Florida.

So... Thanks everyone. Was really nice to read all your answers.
>>
>>467529559
You would love Madison. Everyones gay or bi.
>>
>>467520267

Yes they do, all the time. Just depends on what part of the US you're living in. Some places have a whole lot more friendliness and hospitality than others.
>>
straightfag here, so I can't say from first hand experience, but the DC area is pretty gay-friendly. At least the white parts, anyway...
>>
>>467530019

i hope you find someone you love, and have a family.
i hope you see the good side in things, its not as bad as you think.

>>
>>467520704

>>
>>467508916
Baumanskaya?
>>
>>467531798
You are welcome, it's not 90-s when there were a lot of bandits on the streets they are all in government now.
>>
>>467532560
oh okay thanks
>>
>>467532560
So its just like the US now.
>>
>>467531798
i doubt there're a lot of people who would hit you for being canadian. nevertheless, there are some retards which would hit some1 just for being a foreigner, but there's not very many of them.
the good thing to remember would be avoiding caucasians (not europeans but the ones from caucasus region), there're lots of them here and 99% of them feel like there're better than anyone else. not to say most of the crimes they commit often stay unnoticed by the government. so beware lol

Thanks a lot, my friend.
>>467532263
Yep.

>>467529559

went to school in Kansas City. People are not fond of gays here.
>>
>>467533481
Hell, I'm wondered how the fuck I remembered that even if I visited Moscow once.

I've lived in Chicago and Dallas, been plenty of times to NYC, cali. I'm not gay but from my understanding the more affluent the area the less likely you are to encounter anyone hating on you for being gay. If you go to the hood in San Francisco dressed up like a girl or all over a guy they'd probably not take too kindly to you. Dallas is pretty tolerant too, it isn't like the stereotypes you hear about Texas for the most part. I do live a few neighborhoods over from dubya and that is pretty weird but he is a recluse now and is never seen in public.
>>
>>467534320
Look at what the media did to that guy. You'd never leave the house either
>>
>>467504937 (OP)
Highest cost of living in all of America, one of the highest in the world. Every stereotype about "liberals" you read, all of them are living, breathing, walking around and in your face in S.F. It's cold all the time there unlike L.A.

Typical ruskies (vatniks, pidorashka) are don't really care about you, some of them hating you for no reason. But i like you guys, the nations i really hate are from north Caucasus and other muslim garbage.

ha yeah well not like he didn't deserve it he was a shit president. I really didn't like him while he was in office but now I do sorta feel bad for the guy. Regardless he's still responsible for tons of deaths so I can only feel so bad for him.

- it's really expensive

- yes, you can hang out with a same-sex partner and no one cares

- no seriously, it's really expensive. You cannot afford to live here. I have a decent white-collar job and I have to share a crap apartment with a roommate to get by

- drag queens get love - the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence organize a lot of public events. But most transgendered people don't look like professional drag queens - I would still hate to be a trans person walking down the street, even here

- public nudity used to be legal, but there was a group of skeevy-looking guys who were hanging out at a popular tourist location, so the board of supervisors just passed a new law requiring pants. This caused a huge "controversy" even though no one actually cared either way

- it's very pretty. Golden Gate Park and the Presidio mean that a big proportion of the city is beautiful wooded parkland

- The Castro, which is the well-known gay neighborhood, is actually very small. Also, it's been largely taken over by young professional families, so any air of the sexual underground it once had is gone.

- It's expensive! Get the hell out if you are a poor!

- It's much smaller than you think it is - a mid-sized provincial city, not a busy metropolis. San Jose, an hours drive to the south, has a much larger population

- different ethnic neighborhoods are tiny - really just a few blocks. The projects are only a couple blocks away from rows of Victorian townhomes. The gays are just a couple blocks away from the Mexicans, who are just a couple blocks away from the Facebook/Xinga/Twitter yuppies, who are just a couple blocks away from the black ghetto. And yet these different groups of people almost completely ignore each other.

- The rent. You can't pay it.

- There are a two or three bondage-themed street festivals every year in the summer and fall. You see people getting whipped on the sidewalk, dick piercings, etc -- and tourists with their kids in strollers gawking

Yeah, so is Obama, only he does it with drones and most of those killed are innocent civilians.
>>
>>467505824

False: there are fewer blacks living here every year. They can't afford it.
>>
>>467536275

Oh. I was responding to OP's question about San Francisco, didn't notice how much thread had drifted
>>
>>467536429

I agree what Obama is doing with drones is wrong. Bush really set the precedent for those kinds of operations though. The whole situation is just beyond fucked up now.
>>
>>467514818

This is true of the America lower classes and rural areas. The professional class in any given city - yes, even in the deep south - is tolerant.

Attitudes to homosexuality are one of the things that most clearly separate different social classes in the USA.
>>
>>467537887
Yes, Bush sent soldiers into harms way in an attempt to end tyrrany and nurture democracy. All of Obamas drone kills have been worthless Muslims on sovereign soil. I see your point.
>>
>>467537887
Oh, and using "Bush's precedent" Obama has used drones at a rate 6 times more than him.
