• GOLD COAST ROLLER RK'S LAST GAY SKATE/INTOXISKATE EVER

OAKS PARK GAY SKATE IS ON A ROLL

Startg January 2022, Oaks Park will host Gay Skate on the first and third Monday of every month.

The first time I went to Gay Skate at Oaks Park, I was 19, and on a first date wh a girl om my llege. It’s been around for so long that now people who started g to Gay Skate as teens n brg their own children to the event.

THREE OLYMPIC FIGURE SKATERS E OUT — 2 GAY MEN AND 1 QUEER WOMAN

Back when Safar first started spng there, Gay Skate looked a ltle different. Started 1991 as a fundraiser for gay men’s square-dancg group the Rosetown Ramblers, the event almost exclively attracted gay men  s earlit days—no women and fely no LGBTQ youth.

'QUEER SKATEBOARDG': PHOTOGRAPHER DOCUMENTS GAY SKATER CULTURE

In her time, she’s seen Gay Skate go om an event that pulled 50 people to one that attracts hundreds. In fact, the event has gotten so popular that, startg January 2022, Oaks Park will start prentg Gay Skate twice a month, every first and third Monday.

But Gay Skate offers an alternative, all-ag space to e together. ” Years after she started workg here, MacKay has two dghters who e to Gay Skate nights. The last skate of 2021 was Gay Skate’s 30th anniversary, and the team went all out.

THERE ARE 8 OUT GAY MALE SKATERS AT THE OLYMPICS. IN 2014, THERE WERE 0.

What is the associatn between rollerbladg and beg gay all about? Most of the quad skaters I know are gay women.

16 GAY AND BI OLYMPIC FIGURE SKATERS

As a gay man I do not get skatg, aggrsive skatg pecially, seems very much straight men. Is jt that was mp and people were homophobic? What do you ll a gay man on roller skat?

Three Olympic figure skaters have e out for Pri Month, cludg two gay men and a queer woman. The three athlet are: Amerin sgl figure skater Jason Brown, who is gay; Canadian ice dancer Pl Poirier, who is gay, and Canadian ice dancer Kalyn Weaver, who is queer. I’m gay, and that’s a story still beg wrten...

“[Beg a gay athlete] hasn’t been somethg that I’ve really talked about very much, pecially a public settg, ” Poirier said. ”Self-portra of photographer Ross Lannberger Oak Ridge, LannbergerLannberger adms that as a gay kid skateboardg at his lol skate park a suburban Tennsee, he never felt all that weled by other skateboarrs.
