Another hot topic-gays in spain - 12/21/01 10:39 AM
Hello,
I just wanted to talk about being gay in Spain. I have heard that it is difficult and as a gay male myself, I guess that would be my biggest fear about living there.
I do not define myself by being gay...actually, it is a really small part of my life...really small part and some people wouldn't know it. I had some fun in Chueca and L'Eixample in Barcelona but what I was told is that although the gay life is thriving in Madrid and Barcelona, being gay really isn't an option. It is more like a person has a "roommate" not a boyfriend...or something to that effect...
The people I was studying with were cool with me....
Any observations from both gays and non-gays are welcome! Gays and non-gays? Let me rephrase that...i would love to hear all observations about people's perspectives on gays in Spain. Even if you hate gays, feel free to respond!
Thanks.

Are gays welcomed at a Madridman party?
