Here's 35 l of navigatg a gay leather bar. Like everythg I wre, the tent of this piece is to break down the stigmas surroundg the sex liv of gay who are sensive to ank discsns about sex are ved to click elsewhere, but nsir this: If you are outraged by ntent that addrs sex openly and hontly, I ve you to exame this outrage and ask yourself whether should stead be directed at those who opprs by policg our all others, enjoy the slishow.

NEW ORLEANS GAY BARS

Most were gay men, but some femdoms (female domants) were attendance. Even if you're the LGBTQ+ muny and you walk to an implicly queer-domant space, as most leather bars are, and are not to the sex liftyl leather bars celebrate, you're the equivalent of a bachelorette at any gay bar Ameri -- an unwele nuisance potentially g the space for people who re about more than you do.

GAY LYON

You're more likely to see public sex happeng at a leather bar than, say, your classic tsel palace gay bar wh boyish go-go dancers and Top 40 hs blarg over a by dance floor. The only circumstance where this le gets challenged is a lights-out space ma for anonymo play -- spac which exist some leather bars, gay sex clubs, gay bathho, and so on. Others say was once a mastream feature of gay life, regardls if you nsired yourself kky or "vanilla" (non-kky).

Others ask a more obv qutn: Were gay men ever vanilla? The hanky has vague roots, but we know started the 70s (or earlier) as a vert way for gay men to munite what kd of sex they were lookg for the pre-ter, pre-Grdr, pre-mobile phone, pre-revolutn days.

Even the classic, non-leathery gay bar -- the drag queen palace, the queer dive, the limp-wristed cktail lounge, gossip central -- is rapidly beg a artifact of years past, pre-Grdr nostalgia: a throwback to that simpler time before we found sex partners wh a simple click. Some of the first gay bars the Uned Stat were leather/kk-tered. The bartenr (or someone there) will be able to tell you where to go, what plac sell gear, what parti are happeng, where the guys cise, where the gayborhood is, and so on.

THE DOS & DON'TS OF GAY CLUBBG

You might say this is te of all gay bars -- not so. This is tratgly te for many gay bars that ter to non-kky clientele. Treasure him, this patron sat of the gay leather bar.

If you ci your neart one is not for you, go to a gay leather bar New York Cy (Eagle NYC, The Cock), San Francis (Powerhoe, Eagle SF, 440 Castro), Los Angel (Eagle LA, Fltle), London (Eagle London, The Backstreet), Berl (SO MANY). The backroom of a seedy gay bar is one of them. All you n hear are shufflg feet, the throbbg bass om the dance floor, and the wet, padd slap of someone gettg was my go-to gay bar's backroom until two months ago, when a straight woman wanred back there, got touched, and threatened to ll the ps.

THE 13 BT GAY BARS BARCELONA

Gay men go back there to get groped.

Fearg a police raid (somethg we gay men are rather faiar wh), the owners of my home base recently stalled pafully bright lights, took down the curtas, and turned our backroom to a well-l smokg lounge.

Y, changg social mor, gentrifitn, and hookup apps are partially rponsible for the ath of the gay bar, but ankly, gay men don't want the spac where we feel most at home flood wh straight people there to gawk at . You don't pe to the neart gay bar after years livg the closet so that you may experience muny, belongg, and sex for the first time -- we unfortunately tled mentary "Dear Gay Men, Stop Tellg Women They Can't Be Gay Bars" last month was flammatory bee suggts that straight people -- particularly straight, cisgenr women -- don't need permissn om gay men to be gay bars, or permissn om queer people to be queer bars, or prumably permissn om trans folk of lor to be venu that ter to trans and genrqueer folks of is like sayg a whe person don't need permissn to be a Lat bar -- or, for that matter, don't need to rpect the fact that they are Spanish-speakg environment and nnot expect to be served article suggts that the sole reason women might not be wele some venu is bee of misogyny -- excludg their behavr and hetero privilege om the problem.

GAY PARIS

It's no secret that misogyny is a big problem the gay male muny, but if we're gog to look at large problems, let's look at straight male vlence agast women -- an issue that isn't fixed by encroachg on the terrory of space belongg to someone fact is, everyone needs permissn to be bars that don't ter to them.

That's why we create gay bars and gayborhoods and gay hotspots.
