That place looks like it was awesome! I would have loved to have gone there if I had been a teenager at the time.

I realize this is a decision from over 30 years ago but I was still finding myself getting pissed off at that, "Okay, you two specific gay men can dance here," interpretation of the ruling.
Though how much he kept repeating, "Homosexual fast dancing," was making me crack up.

MTV and modern pop were banned in the house (kid you not), so Videopolis was just a place to dance to loud music and I just didn’t get it. And although I’m an ally, I somehow think me wearing a ‘homosexual fast dancing’ tee shirt would get me some very odd looks.

I'm so glad I was sleepy the first time I watched this because all the description of same sex dancing would have sent me over the edge. Touch dancing? Touch dancing? What kind of sterile sci fi shit is that?
