What is the point of a gayborhood? Gayborhoods were once about safety. A place to escape to, away from the hateful eyes of the rest of society. A place for, primarily men, to live out an alternative life, unlike their fathers and brothers who got married and had children. For straight people, a gayborhood was also a corral, containing the aberrants and their sexual deviance from infecting (somewhat literally) the rest of society.
