Well, no, there's also online dating sites and such, so you can find like-minded people who are also looking to be in a relationship.
"male bonding" as in, if you hold hands while walking, or hug, or touch your male friend intimately in public, it won't be considered gay in any way.
Um let's see. The advantages are that there's no "anti-gay" propaganda, no nationwide raids, no honor killings, etc. There's "gay circles" and parties which people attend to meet new people and such (I haven't, never want to), which are completely legal because the constitution refuses to acknowledge gay people. The disadvantages... uh, no gay marriage, I suppose. Also, if you're feminine, you will never be taken seriously, anywhere.
What about there?
