This was last city in the USA to convict two men for having sex in their home. As the Virginia Slims commercial said, "You've come a long way, baby."

background: The petitioners, John Geddes Lawrence, a medical technologist, then age 55, and Tyron Garner (1967–2006),[9] then 31, were alleged to have been engaging in consensual anal sex in Lawrence's apartment in the outskirts of Houston between 10:30 and 11 p.m. on September 17, 1998 when Harris County sheriff's deputy Joseph Quinn entered the unlocked apartment, with his weapon drawn, arresting the two.

Actually, Houston is fairly progressive for Texas. Esp, the Montrose. But it isn't San Fran.
