I discuss this with close friends but many of them don't understand and consider this strange. They assume that I have an open relationship. I don't. My heart is one hundred percent with my partner. When I have anonymous sexual encounters, I don't ask for names, phone numbers, or repeat performances. I simply want to get off and get on with my day. Other than some of the cruisers I meet, I don't know many people who share my philosophy.

Thank you for making me feel a bit better about myself. I agree that we live in a world in need of greater sexual generosity. Be safe, but have fun. You only live once.

Central California overlooked?

You have ignored the entire central section of California in your Travel Destinations. That includes the Central Coast and San Joaquin Valley, including Yosemite and Sequoia and King's Canyon National Parks.

The Central Coast has gay bars in Monterrey and Santa Cruz, and in the San Joaquin Valley we have bars and shops in Fresno, Bakersfield, and Modesto. Many of these might well be of interest to your travelers touring the Central Coast and Central Valley. How about including a category in California of Central California?

Thanks for the suggestions. Since the cost of sending our reps to the places they write about is offset by advertising, we tend to focus on locations with high concentrations of gay establishments that are popular gay tourist destinations. That's why our travel coverage isn't as exhaustive as it could be. But on the other hand, our coverage of the places we do go is uniquely first-hand, up-to-date, and complete.
