I’m coming from an area of the country that’s stuck in the 80s, so I’m unused to these newfangled ways like treating people with respect. Glad to hear Boston is okay!

It’s funny how must people understand that Boston area in general is very friendly to people of all walks of life. Content of character over all else. But, if you listen to national sports media, then you’d think Boston is the most bigoted place in America.

We have plenty of hate, its just not directed toward sexual orientation or gender assignment.

We prefer to hate on more definitive qualities like how you drive, how slow you walk on the sidewalk and where you get you preferred slice and cup of coffee. You know, stuff that actually defines your character.

Agreed but the unfriendly nature isn’t do to any bigotry. It’s the brutal honesty of ppl from the area who don’t tolerate games and bullsh*t. We have no problem telling someone if they are just an asshole. Lol
