The Dallas Convention & Visitors Bureau wants to get the word out that the Texas city welcomes everyone unconditionally.The bureau's new Web site launched this week, glbtdallas.com, features content for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender travelers including GLBT TAG- (Travel Alternatives Group) Approved hotels—now standing at 16 properties—and other gay-friendly restaurants, art museums and cultural venues. Other information includes GLBT resources, event calendars, photo posts and nightlife features.
"Oak Lawn, our GLBT neighborhood, is out, proud, always bustling and full of things to do," said Ross Crusemann, svp-marketing for the Dallas CVB. "Our city has the sixth-largest gay population in the United States, and we score the highest among the nation's 10 largest cities based on the gay index."
The gay index is a study published by Gary Gates, a demographer at the Urban Institute.

OH YEAH! Go Dallas. We like to call our Oak Lawn area, The Gayborhood. Maybe not so original, but it works.
