What's your point? Is this thread about irony, or is it about Gays, Lesbians and Bisexuals? And, we were talking about discriminating pub/bar/club access for gays/non-gays, and that was the discussion; just because you put up another link to something else entirely doesn't mean that the previous discussion is over. This thread belongs to everyone participating in it, Inked. You are not the thread's "boss."
Lotesse, which of the following points would you like to discuss?
1) The title of the article was priceless.
2) These are public bars, not private clubs.
3) Equality under the law means that someone can shove their heterosexuality in your face with the same equanimity as non-heterosexuals go about shoving theirs in everyone else's.
4) Gay bars have better male dancers and you don't have to be gay to dance (experentia docet), but who should choreograph your next appearance on the dance floor?
5)The irony was superb.
6)Some orientations are more equal than others in their own eyes and so deserve special treatment: "We can go to yours but you can't come to ours."
7) Could a bouncer reliably tell one's orientation or would it be solely an external characterization based on stereotypes?
8) Is Hollywood in England, Lotesse?

I'm not the thread boss, Lotesse. I'm not even a straw boss. But your reply is a "straw-person (p.c.)" argument.
