<p>How is Columbia in terms of acceptance of its gay students? And would you say the students are accepting as well as the school itself?</p>
<p>Very accepting. It’s Manhattan.</p>
<p>^I agree. In three of my classes I can say there’s probably at least one homosexual.</p>
<p>at least one homosexual? haha epa, um, i’m not sure if that is a compliment. </p>
<p>the point is that columbia+nyc are very accepting overall. plus there is an overall culture of being open to everyone, meet new people, talk openly about your sexual preferences and not feel stigmatize, even within the frattiest of fraternities there are openly gay folks, to give you an idea.</p>
<p>there is a large gay population in new york broadly, and i think columbia wont disappoint. but the good thing is that there is diversity and heterodoxy within the gay population, not everyone is the same absolutely, which i think is important to mention.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Was this in jest? Columbia has tons of em.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Why is this a good thing? I’m not interested in knowing about the sexual preferences of acquaintances.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>And I bet there are tons of closet cases in the “frattiest of fraternities” given the homoerotic nature of frattiness.</p>
<p>C02 - can you see russia from your porch? give up the act. </p>
<p>of course for someone who is gay or an ally of the gay community, being in a place where folks are repressed is bad. does that construct awkward situations, maybe, but in the long run it is beneficial to the community that people do not feel stymied. and if you don’t care for it - that’s your prerogative. but on this account, you are a testament to older days.</p>

<p>I just don’t care to hear about peoples’ sex lives – whatever they may entail.</p>
