Abstract

In the spring of 2010, I went clubbing with Caitlyn, a friend I had known since high school. I had just moved to New York City to start my master’s program in social work. Caitlyn, who by this time was an experienced New Yorker with three years there under her belt, already knew all the best ways for Queers to meet other Queers in the city. At the time, I had identified as a woman, and a lesbian, and I was thrilled to have a lesbian friend to show me around and explore the gay parts of the city with.
