Yorkers seem to run the city, from the fashion runways and major music labels,
to Wall Street downtown. And now that same-sex couples can say 'I Do', it's

from verbal assaults to the fatal shooting of a young man in Greenwich Village. While
NYC remains one of the world's gayest cities, caution is always recommended, especially
when leaving bars and clubs at night.
