When I say the term ‘gay tribe’, probably njur up imag of a somehow still survivg, digeno race of homosexuals. Yet perhaps even more ridiculoly, a 'gay tribe' refers to a way of differentiatg between men on the gay datg app 'Grdr', and somethg which has found s way to our everyday disurse about gay men. So what do I mean when I say ‘gay trib’?

Basilly, they’re social groupgs of gay men by our key physil characteristics. A gay man's shoppg list. And then jt scends to a natnal geographic subscriber’s paradise: scendg orr of size/ amount of hair (hair really is a theme the gay world apparently), you've got a bear, an otter, a wolf – WOLF!

In orr to shed light on this phenomenon, Rebel Circ last year wrote an article to ‘-mystify’ the ia of the gay tribe. The article nclud by sayg, ‘The ia of “trib” don’t have anythg to do wh discrimatn wh the gay muny, ’ attributg any lack of acceptance of one’s tribe to the ‘issu’ of an dividual. We’re already labelled as gay as somethg that distguish ; I don’t thk any of are that fsed by beg ‘the gay one’.
