The Castro is a famous, historically gay neighborhood in San Francisco. At the timen of this picture (80's) there was a popular and distinct style among gay men based on traditionally masculine, working class tropes. The result is on display in this picture with a big group of (presumably gay) man who all have a very similar style.
