So am I Phill (to be part of the generation promoting gay rights). To see normally oppressed people flourish and live fantastic, full lives is great. I like walking down Old Compton Street in London and getting looks of men and I am not even gay! Its just fun and different I guess.
I have been to gay night clubs, and the hedonisim is like nothing before. Although I always went that alcholic bit further and wound end up throwing up or something.
