But it takes momentum and that is only built by dozens of individuals staking their claim.<BR/><BR/>It's ok if you want to move, don't feel like you have to give up your life for Detroit. But remember that by making a few shifts in the way you explore the city you can create an entirely new experience.<BR/><BR/>That sounds super fucking irritating, but it's true!Supergay Detroithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10169189092634498259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585668860753081421.post-86650911615637480872008-03-15T21:58:00.000-04:002008-03-15T21:58:00.000-04:00I really enjoyed this post.

While I don't live right in the city (I live in Wyandotte, and formerly Ann Arbor) I share your opinion on the inability of metro area gay bars and clubs to ever evolve into anything fresh. When I was in my late teens, up until about age 22, I would frequent these places literally every weekend, and occasionally week nights. They were all "new" to me at that point. But now at 24 I rarely go because after a certain amount of time they started to bore the hell out of me. They haven't changed in five years AT ALL.<BR/><BR/>"This also creates a community that lazily interacts with itself predominantly through the internet."<BR/><BR/>That above comment from the guy in Midtown is on the spot, in my opinion. It's infuriating to me that really the only way to meet new people here is through the internet because Detroit lacks a "gay ground zero." The whole internet meet-up thing leaves me wondering how shallow we're becoming (or maybe I'm thinking too much.) Being gay isn't my life, but it is part of it, and I'm often left wondering if I'd be better off moving somewhere, anywhere, that isn't so stagnant. I love Detroit, but too often I feel the feelings aren't mutual.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
