I mean like have you ever walked on it? I been there last month when my family and I went to San Francisco. It was scary 'cause the bridge kept shaking cause there were cars driving on it. But at the same time it was also kind of fun. I took lots of pictures btw.

Long time ago, when I was in San Fran, I believe I went over it by car.
I still prefer the Brooklyn Bridge.

Haven't even been to the US, so unless it's been moved to somewhere nearer to me I haven't.

Nope but in our school our teacher chose us a famous landmark around the world and we had to do an essay on it. I had to do the golden gate bridge. Anyways I'd like to go there someday!

I drove over it a few times when I was in San Fran a year ago. It's a pretty cool sight. My dad and brother biked over it, but for what ever reason I didn't feel like going with them.

I want to. Not because it's a tourist attraction just because it's a feat of engineering fit for tourism.

San Francisco is an awesome town. The tourist attractions aren't very special, but there's nothing too "boring" about SF.

Only 15% of SF is gay. You're really not going to run into the SF IS GAY LOL stereotype unless you hang around Castro street.
My image of SF is the way it was in the 19th century as well as hippie town USA :~D

Good lord, a Japanese guy scared of earthquakes while driving through Cali?
I've never been to the Bridge but I think the Sydney Harbour Bridge is cooler.
That all said, my bridge is
The Sunshine Skyway.

I'm more afraid of falling off the bridge. Earthquakes happen i've been in quite a few (heck i've been in one in Toronto for gods sake) I've never been on a bridge while one was occuring however and i'm always really timid when i'm west of the San Andreas because my grade 9 geography teacher kept rambling on about that big-ass earthquake thats long overdue for the area.

Why would someone hide their sexual orientation in the most gay-friendly city in America?

Scared of stupid foreigners making fun of them? I know i personally shouted queer at everyone who even looked the slightest bit flamboyant, I lived in the arts and entertainment district of Toronto for a while which is equally gay-friendly and although they might tell a close friend they usually tried to hide it in public for some reason. Odd i know.

I haven't been on the bridge personally, I wouldn't look to go on or over that bridge eitherway. It seems pointless to me because other than the idea that a bridge gets me across an area faster there is usually nothing spectacular about them. Is there anything special about this bridge? I severly doubt it.

Someone who claims to be as artistic as you should be able to appreciate the fact that you could get quite the view from it?

Nope, I haven't. I'd love to someday, though.
The longest bridge I've probably ever been on is the bridge that connects Virginia to the southern tip of Maryland.
