The Malate district of Metropolan Manila was the gay pal of the cy, ed of the entire archipelagic Philipp, om the 1970s until the early part of this century.

TRAVEL DIARY: WHAT MAK THE PHILIPP SO GAY FRIENDLY?

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.

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).

However, this paper I e “gay bar” to mean a venue equented by gay men whout the volvement of prostutn. However, was only the 1990s that a polilly nsc gay and lbian movement thrived the untry, and the cy that wnsed all the ton Philippe Lbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans (LGBT) history was Manila. In the early to mid-1990s, the tersectn of Adriati and Nakpil streets Malate transformed to a by entertament district terg to both gays and straights.

[/ref] One of the first gay venu along Nakpil Street was Blue Café, which showsed drag performanc on Wednday nights.

However, now all the gay tablishments along the Orosa-Nakpil tersectn, save for one, the Che’lu Bar, are gone. 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.
