[quote name='PedroX' post='14512' date='Aug 6 2003, 06:01 PM']Homophobia in our society has limited the opportunities for gays and lesbians to meet each other safely. The gay bar culture emerged as a place to find other gays and lesbians without fear of harassment. The gay bar is a seductive institution. It is the most available place where people can explore being gay and socialize. There is also a lack of alternative alcohol-free places and occasions to socialize within the gay community. This only intensifies the implied connection between drinking and socializing in gay and lesbian social circles.[/quote]

This is way too true. It's lame actually because the bar scene gets really tiring.

In the town I used to live in we had "Gay Bagles" one Friday a month to talk about issues in a non-bar setting and mingle. That's the only instance I've heard of where the family was doing something social at a bar, well besides all the protests here in CA in the last few months.
