TY PONY IS THE GAYT BAR YUC VALLEY

The Ty Pony Tavern don’t ll self a gay bar, but is the gayt bar California’s Yuc Valley. There’s a lot of homophobia and racism Yuc Valley small pockets. Jsi: My ltle here who is 13 jt me out as gay.

Why, as an almost-50-year-old gay man, did I choose to move out the middle of fuckg nowhere?

A GAY UPLE RAN A RAL RTRANT PEACE. THEN NEW NEIGHBORS ARRIVED.

In the 1960s, early eratns of gay bars were often owned by straight people (many nnected to anized crime, who didn’t fear the illegaly of servg homosexuals), known for servg watered-down and overpriced drks, explog the sire any queer people had to jt be a safe (or safe enough) space.

As gay polil movements stood up agast opprsn—endg some state laws prohibg gay bars om existg, and th, makg gay bar ownership more accsible and approachable—the qualy and variety of drks served at the spac expand.
