Didn't know that. Maybe it's area specific? My gay friends haven't said a word to me, and I've never been hit on. And at the end of the day, I don't care either way.
Might be, who knows. Baltimore has a pretty large gay community, and I asked a couple friends who live in Chicago, Boston, and SF about it, they said it's still "a thing" but it's not as big as it used to be. Here in B'More, it's a little different I guess. Most of the LGBT folks I know have settled down and aren't in the party/club scene anymore -- might be a party/club thing?
