ALL YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT ISTANBUL AIRPORT (IST).I would personally recommend that you avoid the gay night club scene because it is too easy to become a victim when you are visiting alone. I cannot give you any personal advice or recommendation. These places close and open frequently so information may not be current. A bit of research on Google will provide more information about what is available. I do not know what type of evening entertainment you are considering. I agree with Robert that there is no reason why anyone should know what you gender orientation is, and if you avoid going places with people you do not know, you should be safe. This is the best explanation I have of this scam, and gay men are just as vulnerable to it as straight men. You are at greater risk, however, of being scammed, particularly if you are traveling alone. Making your sexual orientation obvious could encourage less than hospitable behavior. Hi Sam R, Homosexuality is not illegal in Turkey, but just as in many other countries gay people may encounter some degree of prejudice.
