Mo's in the Hood

Over the past couple of weeks that little voice in my head, (you know the one we all have that says the unspeakable, but usually funny but true things) has been begging the question "has the whole word gone gay?" Its been asking that question for a while now, not in the usual places, but like in midtown or late a night when riding the subway and two young kids heading to new lots ave. can't keep their hands off each other.
But lately I've noticed here in the hood a marked increase in the boys. I say great bring em on. Could be that they have been here all along and having the dog, I'm out more with him. But I tell you more and more I've been getting that knowing nod, or the slight "hi there". Not the "lets go back to my place and make babies greeting", but the "hey you're one too" greet.
I say bring it on.
Seems of late though the neighbors have noticed it too. There have been some of posts on the local boards about mostly verbal gay bashing. It's so strange to think, that even here in New York, in 2008 that shit is still going on.
