    "Gay" and "Hippie" are little labels that are not exclusive to the other. Yes, I there were gay hippies, just as there are gays in any cultural setting.

    The thing about the counter-culture of free thinking explorers is that there were very few boundaries as we debunked the mainstream culture's prejudices in which we were raised.

    Interracial sex as well as same gender sex was not common or open in that mainstream culture and we did both with the same abandon as we did sex out of marriage.

    The sexual bell curve is made mostly of bisexuals of one leaning or the other and we "brothers" and "sisters" just had sex with whomever - and it was acceptable to do a guy or a girl or both. If it feels good - do it!

    Yes there have always been gay hippies. Many gays are attracted to the hippie philosophy of liberalism and inclusion.

    Funny how San Francisco was/is a haven for hippies and now it's a haven for gays, just as Greenwich Village was a haven for beatniks and is now a haven for gays.

    OP- hippies come in all shapes and sized. As do gay people.

    If you're assuming that hippies must be straight because that is "more natural" then you really need to shake off all that Catholic bullshit, I did and it made my life a lot better.

    The counter agrument I present, is that if hippies accept that love is indeed universal, is it possible to be a hippy and not a pansexual?

    edit** I'm not pansexual, i'm bi. I'm just talking existantially.

    NOPE, it's not allowed. It specifically mandates in the origonal Hippy handbook, Page 47 paragraph 14:

    One Cannot be both hippy, and gay. It is not allowed says I the great.

    Sexual orientation is simply a matter of who we are. We don't "accept" it any more than we "accept" being left handed or blue eyed or dark skinned. We can try to deny who we are, if we wish, but we won't be able to. We can condemn those who aren't the same as us, if we wish, but that's bigotted.

    Hippies and sexuality both come in many many different flavors. The best we can hope for is to learn who we are and become comfortable and happy with it.

    I'm aware of this, I was talking existentially. Perhaps I should have said that in hindsight.
