LGBTQ culture in Istanbul
text:
Istanbul is generally tolerant of LGBT people, at least compared to elsewhere in Turkey. Erin Cunningham of The Washington Post has called Istanbul "a hub for gay and transgender life", but also acknowledged, "outside of elite Turkish society and the trendy Istanbul quarters where homosexual and transgender Turks live somewhat comfortably, life remains difficult for the LGBT population". The city's Beyoğlu district has seen the LGBT community "[reach] a critical mass".
