Gay Friendly Travel
A number of destinations around the world promote themselves as "gay-friendly". Typically, these are cities known for welcoming cultural diversity, such as San Francisco and Berlin. Gay travel has seen remarkable changes and growth in the past decade. "You've come along way, baby!"
Berlin, Germany
Germany's capital has a long history of gay-friendly advocacy. With the roaring twenties came clubs, bars and the opening of The Institute for Sexology, which fought against sexual-orientation discrimination using scientific claims. Although pushed underground with the rise of Nazi Germany, the city reemerged and now boasts the third largest gay population in Europe (after London and Amsterdam) and celebrated the movement's 100th anniversary in 1997.
Over the years, numerous Berlin leaders were rumored to be gay, including Frederick the Great, Heinrich von Kleist, and Alexander von Humboldt. Berlin mayor Klaus Wowereit is gay. Having come from obscurity to prominence in just two years, he is one of the most famous openly gay politicians in the world.
San Francisco, CA
One of America’s “Gayest” cities awaits you - from the Golden Gate Bridge to the Historic Castro Theatre to The Lone Star Saloon. San Francisco offers a diverse offering of fabulous restaurants and eateries, unique retail stores you won’t find anywhere else in the world and probably the only Starbuck’s in the world commonly referred to as “Starbears.”
Thanks to the support of groups like the Bears of San Francisco, we are proud to the “gay friendliest” city. We are also honored to be the home of the fist publicly traded LGBT Corporation – Planet Out (NYSE:LGBT). We recently celebrated the third year anniversary of Mayor Newson’s decision to grant the right marriage to all. And trust us when we say that fight is far from over.
And of course, no trip to San Francisco is complete without a visit to The Complete Bear.
