What cities do you consider the 'gay hubs' of the world? (association, gay friendly)

[The Postman]

Which cities are particularly associated with the LGBT community, have large communities, pride parades, are important to gay culture?

I'd say New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, London, Manchester, Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin, Toronto, Sydney, are a few that stand out.

Within Asia Taipei would probably be the ***** hub, the first place to hold a pride parade and the most liberal city in Asia. In Latin America maybe BA or Rio?

Brighton, Barcelona, Copenhagen and Seattle could be good to add.

Top countries:

Sweden, Denmark, Iceland, Norway, Finland, Belgium, France, the Netherlands, United Kingdom, Spain, Canada, Uruguay.

In the US, the main gay hubs are supplemented by gay resort towns (Provincetown, Palm Springs, Key West, and a few smaller ones).

Likewise, in Europe you have Sitges, Mykonos, Gran Canaria, etc.

I'd say that honor goes to Tel Aviv.
