What is the g*y scene in Guadalajara, Mexico?

Question

I am traveling with my partner to Guadalajara next spring and would like to find out more about g*y life there.

Answer 1

Maybe you should think about Puerto Vallarta, high volumn g*y Tourists and Community.

Answer 2

I'd be careful in Mexico, the culture is very "macho" and many people do not feel kindly towards g**s.

Answer 3

OK people settle down. g*y Scene in Guadalajara is HUGE... it's been thriving since decades ago and keeps going strong. Back in the 90's the government closed all the g*y bars, always in some administrative fault, but they managed to reopen again bigger and stronger.

Guadalajara has now it's own Pride Parade in June and at any given time, there's somewhere between 15 to 20 g*y bars open in the city for all the different tastes. There's bathhouses, bars, clubs, etc. The most famous is the HUGE Monica's that can host up to maybe 5,000 people and opened in 1980. There's also Angel's and Circus. Usually, clubs start getting busy around 11 and some of them close at 2. Then people goes to Monica's that closes at 5 or 6, and if you still have the party bug, go back to Angel's that opens again as an afterhours until 10AM.

Once in GDL, try to find "La Guia Rosa" (The Pink Guide) or "Zona g*y" (g*y Zone duh!), the local magazines with info about the latest bar-openings and events.

So as you can see, the g*y night life is quite open and fun in Guadalajara. Yes you may not be able to hug and kiss in the open daylight without causing a stir, at the end is a very "conservative" society, and just make sure who do you associate yourself with and you'll be safe. I bet you can have lots of fun and make some new friends over there.

Also, there's more and more associations opening in all the different topic; HIV-AIDS support groups, meeting groups, etc. that invigorate the community and give it a broader sense of itself. At the end Guadalajara has somewhere about 5 Million people.
