I hit it up maybe 3-4 times a year. I think it's cool. Crowds are random and can be hit-or-miss, but in my experience it's not mainly creepers and weirdos. Have been there with lots of very fit and attractive guys and few creepers, but I've also been there when the creepers predominate. It's not a gay joint so there are all kinds of people, including families -- calibrate expectations and behavior accordingly. Exercise discretion and respect that the crowd includes plenty of straight dudes. (I wouldn't worry about your bush.) The crowd can be representative of NYC, and all of the good and annoying that includes. The place is big enough that if someone's actually sketching you out, it's easy to avoid them.
