However, a quick walk along the now quiet streets is all one needs to nfirm the fact that gay Malate is ad. Several terlockg factors have brought about the mise of Malate as a gay space and this paper is a most attempt to provi not on this phenomenon.

Philippe gay culture blossomed the 1970s durg the years of the Ferdand Mars dictatorship. Popular disurs on homosexualy began appearg, [ref]See Garcia (2009) for the history of Philippe gay culture.

[/ref] exploratns of homosexual life formed them Philippe films, and gay bars[ref]In Filipo gay culture, the exprsn “gay bar” refers to venu where go-go boys-cum-mercial sex workers dance and ter to the erotic needs of gay men (mostly of the effemate bakla kd).

What has led to the mise of gay Malate?

Morn munitns technologi have changed the sexual cisg ruals of gay men across the pla. Datg s and apps like Pla Romeo and Grdr have eaten up the cisg market and, the Philipp, they have provid gays wh a safer way to fd partners. Before the emergence of social workg s, cheap cemas, public parks, and bathho were among the favoure plac where gay men Manila sought out partners.

Gay bars were somewhat safer plac to meet other gay men as, to my knowledge, they were very rarely raid by the police.

However, even if a gay bar was a safe choice for socialisg, there were nohels many Filipo gay men who refed to go to the venu for fear of beg “outed” or intified as gay. In this ntext, virtual munitns technologi have bee a viable solutn to the problems posed by the dangers of physil spac and the self-acceptance issu hntg non-scene gays. The most subscribed ee mobile phone app and gay datg se the Philipp is perhaps Pla Romeo (PR).

Onle cisg for partners is an ial and st-efficient choice and whout doubt has impacted trimentally on the earngs of gay bars, many of which have subsequently gone out of bs.

THE DEATH OF GAY MALATE: ONE-TIME GAY CAPAL OF THE PHILIPP

In this paper’s fal sectn I suggt a further reason for the ath of gay Malate, namely, the lack of polil awarens among the majory of gay men the untry.

On the one hand, was a symbol of gay pri.

However, the discrepancy between the number of those who participated the annual public Gay Pri March Malate pared to the number of people who attend pri parti gay venu after the March dit that only a relatively small number of queers Manila were prepared to be open about their sexualy. If the bar-goers had joed the annual public Gay Pri March the event would have had more participants.

What did “gay pri” fact mean to the men who only went to the post-Pri March parti anised by the gay bars? While “gay pri” may clu personal affirmatn of one’s gay inty as well as acknowledgment of the gay muny’s existence and of a sense of belongg to , I ntend that the dimensns of polil will and polil actn were missg the gay parti and Malate general. Gay pri the Malate gay bar scene was rced to a mere mercial enterprise void of polil ntent or meang.
