Remember when gay and lesbian bars were a thing; back when straight people steered clear of them because of the stigma?

Not having the stigma is good overall, but in many places there's no longer queer-exclusive spaces. That whole segment of culture is rapidly becoming a thing of the past.



Isn’t that a good thing though? This reminds me of the people complaining cochlear implants are destroying deaf culture.


An absense of queer-exclusive spaces would be as much as a loss as the vanishing of any other major ethnic or cultural space.
