Any ATRLers in the Philly area?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I've seen like two or three people on this forum mention that they're from Philly but am curious if there's any more, I feel like I rarely ever encounter people who live here on online circles. 

 

I've lived here all my life and enjoy it, though the amount of crime can get pretty scary (I got robbed at both gun-point and knife point more than once :rip: ). There's a lot of good restaurants and things to do (the museums >>>>>> ) but my favorite thing about the city has to be our gayborhood. If anyone here hasn't been to Philly but ever steps foot here for whatever reason, check out Tavern on Camac and UBar - they're two very good gay spots (The Bike Stop is fun too if you got a thing for kink/leather :ryan3:). The most popular gay bars are called Woody's and Voyuer but I'd avoid those, too overpriced and at this point they're just gay themed straight bars with the amount of straight people that attend (on a busy night I'd say the attendees are all like 80% straight people :rip: ) and it feels lowkey gentrified by heteros.

I live "close by" and I thought about moving there because I wanted to live without a car, but I ended up not going because everyone warned me about how dangerous it was.

If you stay out of North Philly (especially around the Temple area :rip: ) and avoid being out in Center City and South Philly past late hours you'll be okay, but yeah I've met many people in your position. I don't know what you mean by "close by" because that could mean anything but I know a lot of people who moved to King of Prussia/Havertown/Conshocken/Plymouth Meeting area as a way to be close-ish to the city via train/bus but without having to worry about possibly getting mugged at night.

I'm in NJ but I'm close to Philly. Just a hop over the bridge. 
 

And I wholeheartedly agree with about Woodys/Voyuer. Way too overpriced especially Woodys and I everytime I go something ends up popping off. I think I'll visit Voyuer again because I never got the chance to stay a decent amount of time. There's got to be more gay clubs. :dies:

I love a Jersey sister, I love going to Asbury Park and Lambertville. :heart2: And yeah I'm glad to see someone else understands my frustrations with Woodys and Voyuer. Woodys attracts the WORST type of people, both straight and gay, and like you said there's always some **** going on :rip: Voyuer is a little better in the sense that it's more fun (I love the layout and how huge it is, viewing the dance floor from the top level is always so cool) and I've had my fair share of On The Floor.mp3 hookups there, but there's still a hetero infestation when these places are supposed to be sacred safe havens for the LGBT people that live in/visit Philly.
