Yes. Ban them. Ban all gay men from entering straight bars. Gay men are screechy and annoying and so fucking gay. Straight men go to straight bars to get pussy and watch “the game,” not to have to listen to a bunch of shrieking faggots. And, as everyone knows, gay men only go to straight bars to try and convert straight men into the homosexual lifestyle anyway, so, ban them. Ban gay men.
Last week, we learned that there are rules for straight people when they go to gay bars, and now there is this proposal to altogether ban straight women from gay bars. Good.
Now, in the spirit of equality, the same sort of rules and bans should be applied to gay men when they go to places where straight people are. Gay men should be subject to the same criticism and discrimination if they really want to be treated “equally,” right? Right.
Anyway, back to the new proposal. Queerty’s “Should Gay Bars Ban Bachelorette Parties?” is spot on!
But there’s one situation that I think really needs to be called out: the bachelorette party. For more than a decade, cabals of tipsy straight girls have been barging into queer bars wearing all manner of embarrassing accessories. They hoot and holler, order ridiculous shots and basically drag the spotlight onto the bride-to-be.
We’ll con-fucking-gratulations, missy—you’re getting married! Your friends, family, community and country are standing behind you as you make a lifelong commitment to the man you love.
Wish I knew what that felt like.
Acting irritating in a bar is one thing, but literally rubbing our faces in your wedding when we can’t have our relationships recognized is kind of disgusting.
:-(((
Kind of disgusting? How about totally disgusting. These women are emotional terrorists, coming into gay bars under the guise of being “gay friendly,” only to turn around and then get straight married. Whores. But just as gay men should never have to be exposed to anything that they don’t like, straight people shouldn’t have to be exposed to anything that they might not like either. Seeing openly gay men hold hands, kiss, and act “gay” is guaranteed to annoy at least one person in a straight bar, so a ban on gay men in straight bars is only fair. Keep everybody separate, just to be safe.
All gay men want is to be treated like everybody else, to have the same things that straight people have (weddings), and to be accepted by straight people. But until gay men are fully accepted and heteronormatized, straight women who try to hang out with them and come into their bars and have a good time and pour thousands upon thousands of dollars into their businesses must be stopped. And while some might argue that many of the advancements in gay civil rights are due in large part to straight allies—many of whom are married women—it’s still important to keep straight and gay people separate so that no one ever feels uncomfortable about anything ever. At the end of the day, straight people—especially straight women—simply don’t understand how to behave in a gay environment. They just don’t get it.
Gay bars like Rage and Mine Shaft and The End Up and The Hole and Ramrod and Chaps and Jackhammer and Hamburger Mary’s and The Swallow and The Stud and The Cock are elegant places known for their peaceful and dignified gatherings, and these women are barging in and ruining everything. Sorry, ladies, but gay bars are for gay men. Gay men with dignity.
False equivalency is false.
YES !!! Ban them totally! If they want to live their lifestyle, then do it in your own space. So F*cking tired of these A-Holes causing Sh*t by going into places for the sole purpose of pushing peoples boundries, then screaming discrimination or whatever other F*cking BS they drag out.
Just a had a couple of hours in a straight bar, too drunk too decide if i’m for against. Is this a aye or noe?
Stupid orginal article with a stupid angle that got a stupid response!
Other than Hooters – I’ve never seen a group of gay guys “invade” and attract attention in a straight club – the way bachelorette parties…
The premise of this sarcastic response is absurd.
What gay guy is going to pay a cover charge and a minimum drink purchase just to hang in a straight club?
BTW – most of the sports bars in downtown Dallas border the gayborhood and I have never had a problem when I and/or my friends go.
Hmm sounds similar to here in Houston. Montrose used to be predominately gay, now it’s being invaded by hipsters and there’s quite a bit of hipster bars surfacing here that are walking distance from a lot of gay bars. Funny thing is I find a lot of these hipsters more fem than many of the guys in gay bars/clubs lol
Personnally i can t stand faggots so I would definitely ban them.
Fabulous. Sing it.
haha love it Zach.
But on that note, I hate gay people. What happened to gay people? When did we stop being about fun?
Should I turn straight?
Do gay people want be the only trashy ones with embarrassing accessories in a gay bar?
Equal rights means every trash bag has the right to get wasted in whatever bar they like. Suck it up.
I don’t know which parts you are being serious and which are flat-out sarcastic, but I love to hang out at straight bars way more than at gay bars. With straight bars, I’m there to hang out with the friends that I’m with. And yes they know that I’m gay, and I blend in real well in a straight bar/club since according to a lot of people I’m pretty masculine. I would be crushed if there was some sort of ban like that, but then again that would be illegal and according to the constitution.
As far as women at gay bars and clubs, I don’t have a problem with that until they bring in their bachelorette parties. Why should we be tolerable of that mess when we wouldn’t be allowed to throw our parties at any straight bars, clubs and strip joints for straight men or women? jasun Mark has a video on his youtube page making some pretty good points about bachelorette parties at gay bars/clubs. And I don’t think these bachelorette parties bring that much more business to gay bars/clubs. Women can be cheap. Hell even the straight male strippers come dance at gay bars/clubs to get away from the (as Brock Traynor from RB so eloquently put it) “tight-wad bitches.”
*APPLAUSE* This is one of my favorite things you have ever written. :)
Agree 100%! Excellent article!
