Gay & Lesbian in Netherlands
Welcome to Gay Netherlands!
Mention Amsterdam to someone who's already visited, and you'll more than likely evoke a happy grin. Amsterdam stands on reclaimed land, its narrow
streets bustling with people, and the weather could be a little better, cloudy days are common as is prolonged frost. So what makes Amsterdam so special?
It's not merely the potent marijuana available at coffee shops, the tallest men you've ever beheld, the vibrant scene traversed easily by foot, or
the "houses of pleasure" Attribute Amsterdam's allure to its amazing tolerance and the bonhomie of its citizens. Holland is one of the only countries
in continental Europe where most natives speak English fluently.
Homosexuality is legal in the Netherlands. Gays and lesbians even won the right to get legally married since 2001. The age of consent for gay sex is 16, but
for prostitutes it's 18.
What a great way to find your way around the city of Amsterdam
