I guess I was thinking more generally about how conventionally or conservatively people seem to live.
For example I tend to see that gay couples I know in Alberta (Calgary or Edmonton) tend to follow the more standard white picket fence lifestyle while in Portland you run into the vegan wiccan poly nudist collectives (not necessarily superior).
