Brooklyn Elevated to Lesbian Mecca

The Brian Lehrer Show | Dec 11, 2013

On yesterday's show, outgoing Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz claimed that Brooklyn has become the lesbian - specifically lesbian, not just LGBT - capital of the Northeast. “We remain the lesbian capital of New York City and the Northeast. In other words, we have a much larger lesbian population in Brooklyn. New York City is fortunate to have a large LGBT community, but in Brooklyn in particular, the lesbian community, there’s no question it’s the capital of the Northeast.” Do you agree? John Hodgman thinks Northampton still holds the crown. Let us know what you think.
