Not gonna lie, I get a little in my feelings when gay bars get completely overrun with straight girls... and the douche-y straight guys who follow the straight girls in looking to score.
Am I saying straight people can't enjoy gay bars? Fuck no, come on through with your gay friends, party with us, get your life. I just don't like when it gets to such a degree that this LGBT space, the whole point of which is for gays and GNC folk to (for once) feel a "normal" majority, turns into basically every other bar.
Doesn't happen often, but when it does, it's bothersome.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
