When I went to the 90’s this past weekend, I was a little overwhelmed by the strong straight crowd. I think there are more straight people at the 90’s than there are gay, and it’s a gay club. It’s good to build bridges but NOT to a point where I (the gay person) feel uncomfortable. It is suppose to be my space where I can let loose and be myself.
I know that gay people can go to straight clubs but the air is always intense and one must always be on guard. Now it seems the same thing is happening to the gay spots. I shouldn’t feel unsafe in a gay club, then whats the point? There’s no real solution to this issue as people cannot be chased away because they are “straight.” I wish gay people would also feel as comfortable in straight spaces. I shouldn’t even be using words like “straight places” and “gay places” but I have to, because change has not occured yet.
this is thing of being gayish in a straight world has been one hack of a challenge for me.
just imagine having to live double lives since you have uncertainties and struggling to coe in terms with some other sexuality matters.
i tried to socialise in gay environments for two year, and enjoyed the vibes, but, ended upin wrong and dangerous circles at times.
as far as fucking around is concerned, thats not for muaaa.
but really, being gayish in a straight world need yourconfidence, stand your ground, play hide-and-seek at times if your are with homo-phobes and it works for me.
however, eish… its a challenge as far as dating is concerned if you are a HOMOSEXUAL THAT IS STRAIGHT.

anyway, all i am trying to say is, really, thre is no such a thing as a straight male.
i dont know about females, but, males are gay to some degree.
just get too drunk and go to a straight males pub, and see if you will leave alone there or what.
its just that people are scared of the unknown.
for example, it took me more than fiv year before it could accept that i MIGHT be gay, letalone to be gay.
just imagine how many me-gays are the who also in that phase now never mind their ages.

This post and its comments remind me, again, that it is easier to be a lesbian… What an odd world.
