There is also just a feeling of rebellion that comes with being in New York. We feel super comfortable being ourselves and really affectionate with one another. We often take a lot of pride saying we live in NYC because of the diversity and being able to handle all these different cultures that are thrown at you, but I think the best part of it is being in a city that is recognized for its LGBT pride and community.īeing lesbians in New York is such a freeing place to be because there is such a huge variation of people, you don’t feel like an outcast, and a lot of times you will run into other lesbians like you.
