My New York experiences were all with streets-working professionals, they were all woman AFAIK or could determine. And i had several experiences while doing my own version of Kerouac/Cassady's On the Road in Summer '71, all were women, one guy in Chicago tried hard to hit on me. Otherwise, West Coast, all Bay Area, just a few flirtations in Seattle during a Dead 3 days stand in May '95. But the bisexual PC rap also came at me from the Fifth Estate, an anarchist paper then ('93-4) based in Detroit.

That is some experience...though all of it is conventionally social. People reveal different facets of themselves in different environments. Set and setting and what is socially acceptable are essential to understand. Also experiencing people not as a direct participant but as witness and facilitator matter.

In my Bay Area experiences, anything was socially acceptable :-) Well, maybe not bestiality.
