History Of The Hookup Scene In San Diego

Some believe that "San Diego" stands for "whale's vagina," however it actually stands for Saint Diego, who was one of the founding fathers of this great city. One of the earliest bars to open in San Diego was in 1885. It was opened in an area that soon became the "red light" district of San Diego, where hookup clubs and sex clubs were very popular!
