As someone who go to this street to go clubbg, I have noticed that more and more straight people pick theGay Street as their night-out statn.

The owner did not want to be labelled as a gay club, but rather as a club that attracts “trendy youngsters, regardls of their sexual orientatn”. In this article, I aim to explore the perspectiv and opns of people on the ‘(non-)straightifitn’ of the Reguliersdwarsstraat and what do this means for the future of the street otherwise known as the Gay Street.
