Visited Manhattan around '91 or so, gayest place I've ever seen. And I'm from Tulsa, which believe it or not, has a rockin' gay scene!

I assume the noises must include trolley bells?

Cable car ones! There's a difference.

Cable cars use an underground or street-level cable, while trolleys use cables above them.

This is fascinating!

The gentrification by tech bros overrode the gay but not in a fun way

And you were so close to Provincetown, RI. Our parents took us when I was maybe 11, my brother 12. I like to joke that it turned him gay.

I'm so sorry we didn't get you too.

You’ve clearly never been to Saugatuck, MI.
