Just came back from #Berlin, and I really enjoyed it!
A few recommendations:
1/3 Try to follow a guided #tour conducted by independent BerlinGuide.de.
He proposes three thorough tours of the city on its #QueerHistory and #TransHistory, its #HistoryOfSex, and its #history of #clubs. I followed the first one, and it was fascinating, with extracts of interviews and documentaries bringing depth to the tour.
Can't wait to follow the other two next time I go there!

1870 "Map of Predominating Sex", is 150-year-old social analytics.
The darker the shaded area, the greater the disparity between reported male and female population of a given area. In other words, in 1870, many self-described male Americans were:
1) Going without sex
2) Having sex with other men
3) Sharing women (including sex workers)
4) Taking partners from unenumerated population groups (i.e. slaves and indigenous women)
