@MrTommYYZ Instead of utilizing the lazy mans phrase "I think" How about doing some research and coming up with some facts. -sad

Another reason why the Castro and SF generally became home to a large LGBT community is: at the end of WWII, military personnel from the Pacific theater were processed out of the service at the port of SF. Having seen the world and possibly combat, many were reluctant to return to "small town America" with its close mindedness, rejection & lack of jobs. There was a "live & let live" ethos in & around the Bay Area, so many gays & lesbians stayed, put down roots & flourished.
