Bears of the Old Pueblo

The Bears of the Old Pueblo is a social organization for gay and bisexual men who are ‘bearish’ and those who admire them. So what is a bear? It’s partly attitude, but some physical characteristics often associated with bears are facial hair, body hair, and generally larger, stocky, or more robust males. The best explanation is that bears have a ‘cuddly demeanor followed by a cuddly body.’ Those who like bears are warmly accepted by other bears. So if you like bears, you’re a bear too! Bears are often distinguished by a relaxed, accepting nature, and quick to hug in greetings and other gregarious encounters.
