my gay friend came here for a visit and he kept hearing people talk about the Village and then he saw all the bath houses and thought he was in homo heaven, boy was he disappointed.

16. No shiny black pointy-toed FBI shoes allowed.
Also, no nose rings or belly-button rings.

As for tatoos, only alligators allowed. On the arms.
