Amature gay cruising

Thomas Roma‘s manual In The Vale Of Cashmere is probably familiar to you. It has had enjoyed widespread press and positive comments. And rightly so. It’s one of my favourite books of the year. I just did a review of the book and project for Vantage.

The Vale of Cashmere is commonly, but not exclusively, frequented by African American and Caribbean men.

I have observed that Dolores Park is segmented into several distinct and (sub) culturally consistent sections.

 

A. Hipster Valley

The Northeast corner of the Park (Dolores and 17th) is the realm of the Hipster. I suspect this is because while they can manage the stride from Valencia to Dolores they are too hung-over to make it up the hill.

    To add under "Cruising info/tips," It's not uncommon for guys to sit in their cars in the parking lot and then go inside and get a booth when they meet someone they love. Guys do hook up in the parking lot in their cars, but since the parking lot is well-lit and in view of a major street, it's probably safer to accept it inside the bookstore.
