Lol, I think you found the fastest way to get everyone on here to respond. I don't know the last time I saw so many post in the sw forum in one day. You can mark me in the hetero column.

also, pastrami and bacon are delicious, you can even eat them together if you choose. |
Geez, what's with all the heterosexuals in our forum today?
Okay, the gay men, no women thing is sort of intriguing. And I like bacon. |
I think just in general, gay men are attracted to style and beauty (not to say that straight people don't appreciate style). You find a lot more style in central phoenix than in the suburbs. Also, gay men are more drawn to urban areas, as the soccer moms in the suburbs are generally not too open to alternative lifestyles and it tends to be too conservative for a lot of gays. And you know gays, once they move into a neighborhood, they take it on and want to beautify the whole area. Gays have a reputation for transforming neighborhoods.. (Chelsea in New York, Capitol Hill in Seattle.. etc).
I think most people who live in urban cores are interested in seeing development and pretty buildings, but the gays just get a lot more involved in the process. Ok, I'm rambling. But that is my personal opinion on why there are so many gays on here. I'm not sure if it made any sense. |
I'm straight, but I do like banannas.

I hope this pleases everyone.
For the straight and narrow. http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/5...0777255846.gif For the crooked and wide. http://www.rowthree.com/wp-content/u...5/image003.gif |
I think this site has a high gay percentage because they have no children and two incomes in one household. Therefore, they have a high expendable income and are able to live in the cool trendy areas of each city.
Anyone ever notice how the gay parts of town tend to have the nice 'hoods, cafes, restaurants, bars, shops etc...Naturally, they'd be interested in the SSP. BTW, hetero here. |
I had to chime in.
A former friend mentioned that the style concept of a gay man tends to focus on things that don't affect themselves as much as it would other people. The best example is as a women's fashion designer, but I could easily see that applied to urban planning as well. |

As far the "visioning" meeting went, all they had us do was throw out things we valued about Phoenix, which went reasonably well I suppose. A lot of the same themes kept coming up (weather, opportunity, openness, the desert) which wasn't much of a surprise. It was only an hour or so long and I felt a bit hamstrung by how limited the topic of the meeting was. The next meeting is on Nov 6th at 6pm at the same place. We're supposed to come with ideas "imagining Phoenix at its best at 2050." I encourage anyone here to show up since I got the feeling from a lot of people at the first meeting were long on heart but short on vision. I feel like a lot of the folks here would really have some valuable things to add. |
I saw this interesting event coming downtown in the Business Journal:
