Cathal Irw, 20: “Beg gay is tough for some people and g out isn’t always easy or possible, and they turn to drk and dgs as a pg mechanism. But also, I thk that due to gay culture origatg as an unrground culture started wh the dulgence of drk and dgs and this gets passed on om person to person. This feelg of fear is even felt Manchter’s gay village where many rints, visors and staff fd themselv more alert than ever.

Funnily enough, the gay village was one of the few plac that I jt felt like a piece of meat if I’m hont. Maybe ernment fund, maybe n by anisatns, but I jt feel there’s not enough physil spac of refuge for gay people.
