Being a town which is married (administratively) to another town to make a City. Unique isn't it?
Beers, Queers and souvenirs.
I would have to say the gay and lesbian community.
Having spent over 30 years living outside of Sussex now, whenever I said I was from Brighton or supported them it would be the first thing that was said. One of the reasons I despise Southampton FC so much is the shit I used to get as child about being gay from their fans and was too young to understand to know how to deal with or respond to it correctly. Even my football coaches back then would go on about it constantly whenever I wore the stripes. The adult me wishes I could go back to the 10 or 11 year old me and confidently respond to those twats in the proud way I would be able to today. Even as an adult with a MRS and 2 children though, I'm still called Ducky by a few Southampton 'friends', purely because I'm from Brighton and support the Albion.
After that I would say most people comment on - 1) great night out and 2) The Lanes.
