LGBTQ+ bars are closing across the country. But in NYC, they are thriving. (gothamist.com)

NYC has always been open to everyone though, I'm not surprised. People from the aouth and Midwest go there and see New Yorkers as rude, when I've found new Yorkers to be the most welcoming

New Yorkers are not rude. They just mind their own fucking business. Live and let live

Completely agree. Rural people go to the city and perceive that as rude. No, it's not rude, we just have more than 5000 in our cities, it's ridiculous to stop and say hello to people. If you want to be kind, walk on the right, stand on the right of the escalators, and don't stop in the middle of the sidewalk. Urban kindness is more or less just being aware that you aren't the only person
