"Nothing there that is problematic?" Except that the working people,who saved and bought property, have moved away from P-town, in droves. ...they just couldn't take P-Town circus atmosphere any more!

But that is P-Town had has been for many many years. Unfortunately, I blame society. Gay couples found a gay-friendly place to live - then tourists came and stared at them so some became defiant (as I would too) and created a show for the...

If gay men move into your neighborhood be thankful and start buying RE - the home prices will start to soar.

I'm glad you said that, TE. We should be friends anyway. You have a wicked sense of humor.

TE, you're beginning to grate the cheese. There is a bar in P-town for you - Moby Dick.

I'm comfortable enough with my own sexuality and that of others that I can jive along with the best of them.

I also had an african american boss. He was a San Francisco private investigator. The license plate on his Porsche read SAMSPADE1.

His son was my supervisor and we always traded racial barbs with absolutely no rancor.

They treated me like family and I'll never forget it.

elliegal - B. edited his post to make it "lispy" almost 1/2 hour after the original and 20 minutes after my response. Originally, it was not "lispy" or obviously I wouldn't have reponded the way I did.

Thanks for bringing B's edit to my attention.

You got me wondering, Ellie. Not that all gay men lisp, but there is a stereotypical association. Also, I was wondering why some women who don't drive trucks sound like truck drivers. (Sorry, truck drivers!) This article provides some insight:

From Wikipedia:

Several speech features are stereotyped as markers of gay male identity: careful pronunciation, wide pitch range, high and rapidly changing pitch, breathy tone, lengthened fricative sounds, and pronunciation of...

No? Then what's with all the pretend lisping? Nothing more stereotypic than using lisping to portray 'gayness', is there?

"Nothing there that is problematic?" Except that the working people,who saved and bought property, have moved away from P-town, in droves.

So many sold and left that in one recent year that there was only 1 (one) first grader in the public schools, so 1st grade as a separate grade was eliminated!

I grew up summers on the mid-Cape, know the Cape well, worked the summer jobs there, loved and still
love the other Cape, but don't like some of the trends...

IMO, no one should have a problem with P-town as there is nothing there that is problematic.

One of the reasons I have no problem with Provincetown is that I lived in Guerneville, CA on the Russian River in Sonoma County, an hour north of the city. Like a mini P-town, but with more of a western flair. They had leather weekends, womens weekends, biker weekends, you name it.

The local hardware store always stocked up on batteries before womens' weekend.

I was a...

I've heard rumblings of a ferry service run by Boston Harbor Cruises,if so this is what you may see.....This vessel almost ran me down twice the last two summers. I believe they run on auto-pilot and poorly man a look-out. I would try to hail them on VHF ch 16 and never get a response.
