Fed up wh high street shops and onle bs only really sellg ems durg gay pri, as well as givg nothg back to the LGBTQ+ muny here Manchter, Ian & Jason created the UK's Biggt LGBTQ+ Store the heart of the cy's inic Afflecks Palace.

MANCHTER GAY BARS

Queer spac have also diversified, too: whereas throughout the 00s most LGBTQ+ venu were nightlife-specific, terg primarily to an dience of whe cis gay men, the current landspe is far more clive, providg spac for people of lour, trans people, lbians, and those who are sober.

For years, the inic Gay’s The Word London’s Bloomsbury operated isolatn, a cur among the untry’s shrkg pennt bookshop scene. Gay’s The Word, London. Inially operatg as a rovg bookshop and mail-orr service, Gay’s The Word’s permanent lotn at 66 Marchmont Street Bloomsbury opened 1979.

From that moment beme a muny hub for the pal’s LGBTQ+ muny, hostg polil and activist groups such as the Gay Black Group, the Lbian Discsn Group (which still meets at the shop) and, 1983, Lbian and Gays Support the Mers – ma famo the 2014 film Pri. In 2007, risg rents, the global recsn and the proliferatn of onle shoppg saw the Gay’s The Word fightg for survival once more. Sce then, Gay’s The Word’s populary has soared, wh longstandg manager Jim McSweeney sayg that the shop has never been as by as is today.

Along wh specific sectns dited to gay, lbian, trans and YA fictn, there are shelv foced on history, tobgraphy and memoir, queer theory, and a rather brilliant send-hand sectn, where you n often fd rare and out-of-prt LGBTQ+ books.

It’s the olst LGBTQ+ bookshop the UK, but Gay’s The Word remas the GOAT. Along wh lks to the Gay Liberatn Front, the not-for-prof bookshop Kg’s Cross was the birthplace of the London Lbian and Gay Swchboard (now known simply as the chary Swchboard), which provid a val lifele to queer people throughout the 70s, and was stmental sharg rmatn about the HIV/AIDS crisis the 80s and 90s. As one of the longt-nng radil bookshops the UK, Homans also has a history of stockg LGBTQ+ lerature, and like Gay’s The Word, the shop was raid by HM Ctoms and Excise 1984.
