THE DEATH OF GAY MALATE: ONE-TIME GAY CAPAL OF THE PHILIPP

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. 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.

Gay bars were somewhat safer plac to meet other gay men as, to my knowledge, they were very rarely raid by the police.

A GAY GUI TO MANILA

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. In this ntext, virtual munitns technologi have bee a viable solutn to the problems posed by the dangers of physil spac and the self-acceptance issu hntg non-scene gays.
