They made Boston lame as fuck about 20 years ago on purpose. It's got plenty of gays.. it's not that it's that everything is lame now..

Yeah I haven’t had much fun in Boston so far :/ I’m 23 and was hoping there would be more of a young party scene

Sorry...if it was 1997 you'd have plenty of places to go, gay or not. Place used to be pretty live but it's pretty crap now. They shut down a lot of places, drove out anything that wasn't yuppy bullshit. If I ruled the world I'd do something to change it because you'd think with the amount of colleges you could sustain it.

I just learned that ManRay nightclub in Central Square just reopened in a new location after closing in 2005. It’s more goth than queer specifically, but they say they’ll have LGBTQ-friendly themed nights. I’m glad it’s back - the articles about its closing lamented Central losing its “funk.”

Welcome to post pandemic Boston where the places that are still open are hanging by a thread. If you want parties you need to make some friends that throw them in warehouses
