Get Ready and Sweaty for a Fun, Gay Summer

Dear Askagay – I just moved here from Grand Rapids and I am so excited for a big gay Chicago summer? What are the must see, must dos?

Oh Hairy Larry, you are in for a treat. At this time of year everyone is hitting the gym a little harder, eating less and dumping their winter boyfriends to get ready for the two months that IS a gay Chicago summer. Here’s a quick reference guide:
Assorted Street Festivals – Bump, grind, sweat debauchery, sort out the straight guys from the gay guys under the guise of seeing the 80’s cover band Sixteen Candles
Pride Parade – Bump, grind, sweat debauchery under the guise of a parade
Market Days – Bump, grind, sweat debauchery under the guise of a street festival
Every Friday and Saturday night – Bump, grind, sweat debauchery under the guise of a quiet night catching up with some friends
Sunday afternoon – Bump, grind, sweat debauchery under the guise of “I will go home early because I have to work tomorrow”
BBQs – Bump, grind, sweat debauchery under the guise that we actually eat bread, potatoes or any cream based substance.
Hollywood Beach i.e. the gay beach – Bump, grind, sweat debauchery, no guise
Your best friends are now Gatorade and power naps. Godspeed.
Best,
Ask A Gay
