It seems to be a popular question when a gay couple wants to relocate. "They" seem to know what a "gay lifestyle" is. Which is why "they" are asking if the new location has it.
The gay single lifestyle would likely be different from a gay spousal relationship just like the differences in the straight single and spousal relationship. The general public seems to focus on the single gay lifestyle and creates stereotypes but mostly ignores the gay spousal relationship.
Eh... no, not just like everyone else, and "gay lifestyle" is a perfectly legitimate way to describe how the lives of gay men tend to differ from those of other men.
Why do you care what gay men do? Does it affect you in any way?
And why do you single out gay men? What about gay women?
That's what women want. Men want lots of sex, preferably with a variety of people. Straight men are mostly frustrated in this pursuit by women. Gay men are not, hence the "gay lifestyle".
Yes, every city has ordinances that ban such behavior, but gay pride parades full of this type of behavior are not stopped, in large part because officials and authorities know that people like you will believe the rhetoric of activists that will paint such restrictions as further evidence of "oppression."
You're quite aware of the fact that what we describe is a regular feature of pride parades. If I were motivated, I could copy and paste links to dozens of parades like this.
The simple fact is that most Americans don't care about homosexuality. They don't care. There isn't an sizable group of Americans arguing we should take away rights from homosexuals. Most buy into the modern, secular dogma of "live and let live." Homosexual activism is kind of like the civil rights movement in that once the civil rights movement achieved many or most of its original goals, the activists often had to manufacture crises and outrages to keep the movement going, regardless how invalid or even how absurd such crises or outrages ended up being. Call it "defining oppression down," if you will. Homosexual men do better economically than straight men, for example. I'm trying to think of another group of people, globally, who are labeled "oppressed," and who do better than the general population financially. Jews, I suppose, but we don't see Jewish Pride Parades, nor demands for more Jewish characters, nor demands for various accommodations based upon Jewis status/identity. While I hear accusations of anti-Semitism against campus leftists and loons, I don't hear much from the Jewish community anymore that they are oppressed by the larger population outside of our campus fantasylands. In contrast, LGBT activists cry louder than ever about their oppression, usually without any actual evidence or with terribly flawed logic or evidence, as with the issue of higher suicide rates among LGBT folks. (Interestingly, we see high rates across cultures, from the "tolerant" ones to the most repressive.)
You have a lot of opinions. If you don't like Pride parades, don't go to any. They are advertised well in advance so I'm sure you can easily avoid any that might be scheduled near your home.
Before forty. After forty it's tubby married balding bears and bed by 9:30. Pretty much like us straights.
Never understood older people wanting to go bed early. My mother into her 90s wanted to watch a late night talk show and on Saturday night, Saturday Night Live, of course, before going to bed.
