A naive college student from America and his pals had Londoners cracking up with their complaint about being in one of the capital’s gay hotspots.
Posting to the social media forum Reddit, many other users thought the comment was worthy of being placed in the esteemed ‘Reddit Hall of Fame’.
After visiting a bar in Soho, known for its vibrant nightlight and bustling gay community, the disgruntled drinker decided to share his discontent on the subreddit London.
He wrote: ‘Last night, my friend and I experienced Soho, and we were not impressed.
‘The drinks were expensive (that’s to be expected) but it didn’t help like every bar was 90 per cent dudes. Also, it seemed like an older crowd.
A college student from America was mocked online for complaining on Reddit that there were ‘too many men’ while he was out drinking in Soho, apparently oblivious to the fact it is home to one of the city’s biggest gay communities (stock image)
‘Also lots of creepy guys. Seemed like a centre for tourists to drink? We are college students by the way.’
The post was soon picked up and flooded with comments, getting upvoted almost 3,000 times.
Naturally, Londoners were quick to good-naturedly mock the American friends for their comment.
One person replied: ‘Hahaha. 90% blokes in a bar in Soho? Well, I would never…’
Londoners couldn’t resist teasing the American guy for moaning about too many men being out in a gay part of the city
‘Was Judy Garland and Cher blasting from the speakers?,’ quipped a fifth follower, with another responding, ‘I think it was mostly Abba and Eurovision songs.’
Finally spelling it out for the college students, someone else added: ‘oh honey…. you walked into the gay district of London and are complaining that it was all guys. Honey…. oh honey.’
Since writing the post the American man wrote an edit to his original post, adding: ‘Oh god’, indicating he’s now realised his mistake.
People couldn’t believe that spotting Pride flags outside pubs such as the Admiral Duncan did not give it away
Soho and the West End have been a haven for gay Londoners for hundreds of years and are packed full of incredible and inclusive places to eat, drink and have fun.
It is one of London’s most popular places to visit for locals and tourists alike with places like the forever popular G-A-Y club or The Admiral Duncan pub.
‘Someone needs to pin OP’s post. This is hall of fame material,’ added another user.
Someone else gushed: ‘This post really made my day. Thanks so much, OP.’
Another Redditer joked: ‘Were there colourful banners posted up on these bars you speak of?’
