GAY RORTS

Time to start at the GAYgng and do all over. (Gee Wylol / For the Tim) Two of my iends have an ongog joke: If they’re the only ctomers a bar, that bar is now a gay bar.The same ethos n be applied sentially anywhere a cy as gay as Palm Sprgs: Any ffee shop or clothg store n be gay if someone queer lov .Still, if you’re lookg for the bt queer-iendly thgs to do the place some ll the gayt town Ameri (when Palm Sprgs hered the natn’s first all-LGBT cy uncil, rints shgged), helps to ask the people who know the sert town’s LGBTQ+ muny timately.

For Brad Fuhr, the founr of Gay Dert Gui and owner of KGAY 106.5 FM, curatg the bt of LGBTQ culture Palm Sprgs is his full-time gig. Durg the two s that he’s spent visg and livg Palm Sprgs, Fuhr has watched the lol gay scene evolve. “For a long time, all the gay bars and lbian bars were Cathedral Cy,” he said.

It was lerally the ’90s when the bars started croppg up here.”Trixie Mattel, the skny legend who graced the “RuPl’s Drag Race” nway for two seasons, fell love wh Palm Sprgs all s gay glory the first time she vised.“Not to be rctive, but I remember gog out at like, 2 p.m., and was adult gay men like, midcentury clothg drkg and dancg,” she said. (You n watch the entire renovatn procs on their show, streamg on HBO Max.) This means that they pe to the sert as often as possible to shop, drk and relax.Between Fuhr’s expertise, Trixie’s mment to athetics and spicy margaras, and my own gay agenda, I’ve assembled this nonprehensive list of lol queer spots. Some are LGBTQ-owned, some draw queer crowds, and some are gay the same way that iced ffee and walkg fast are gay: They’re gay if we believe they’re gay.
