South American Way


My pal and former NYT colleague Erik posted this from Bogota, a city I unfortunately visited before it got in touch with its LGBT feelings:
If Epcot opened a massive gay playground the size of the Roxy, Mars and Club USA combined, it would look like Bogota's Theatron, a mini-city of such gay ferocity it makes New York nightclubs look like Olive Gardens. It cost about $12 to get in, once you got through the huge lines. You receive a plastic cup good for unlimited drinks. Guards keep the flow between the many rooms orderly in a way I've never seen before. Oh, and this guy was in the reggaeton room.
The first time I went I was just happy that my Colombian boyfriend was no longer pretending I was his "roommate"!
