All the straight clubs I remember from ~15 years ago in Providence, Rhode Island are gone now. Pretty much every nightclub or bar has to be at the very least gay friendly if not outright gay to survive. I don't think it's an overstatement to say that social media has made Providence the gayest little city in the nation.

Is Providence really that bad? I was thinking of moving there. How would you compare it to Boston as far as gaming options and overall quality of life?

I went to a club in Providence 2 months ago. It was ghetto but was packed. It had an upstairs and a downstairs. It was crawling with women. A lot of the puerto ricans there were very cute too. BTW is was a puerto rican/black club.

Was it Colosseum? There's one other place in the same area that I recall that fits that description, but I'm blanking on the name. It's in a brick building near J&W.

I've considered checking out those places, but when out solo I feel really uncomfortable hitting up clubs that have huge signs by the door regarding their "ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY", dress codes designed to curb gang activity (no hats), and bouncers with metal detectors. Shit doesn't give me a good vibe.

Many years ago there was a trashy little club called Hell in the theater district where as a young man I could pull emo/goth chicks with little difficulty. It's a gay club now, seems most of the clubs in that area are. And it was before social media, circa 2003, so everything was easier in general.

Providence seems to have its fair share of unpleasant cunts as well; I remember a couple times where I'd simply smile at a couple women walking on the street or sitting in their car, not even approaching, and get bitched out for it:

"Ugh, not YOU." - two white chicks sitting in their Honda Civic

"Yeah forget you dude..." - two Hispanic girls walking down the street

It's still New England, after all.
