Is San Francisco so gay because of the military??
Even way back during the gold rush, folks in the Bay Area were flouting gender norms - crossdressing wasn’t uncommon and there’s documentation of "wedded bachelors" with an "artistic inclination" having a long-term relationship.

And as we all know the Navy itself is also the gayest of all the military branches.

The Village People wrote a song: "In the Navy." But all branches of the service are taking LGBT people, they got a quota to fill.
You know, oddly enough, i never once thought to ask "why" San Francisco was as Queer centric as it is.

@@bartsanders1553 Of course it does. It's an interesting part of the culture and is just one part of the US's rich tapestry. A more important question may be, "why do people give a shit that there's gay people?" I do not understand people get so bent out of shape about another individuals consensual adult sexuality.
