glantz is the biggest gasbag in poker btw. also btw never have I seen someone use the "looking away" twitter avatar and not be pretentious trash
I'm straight, gf for over 12 years, been to tons of gay bars in NYC and Florida. There's nothing weird about being spotted at a gay bar. It's not some place the gays go to get their gay on anymore than another bar is a place just for girls/guys looking to fuck.Quote:

I would def feel weird showing up by myself - but there's nothing weird about a group of friends that aren't all gay going to a gay bar.
If you haven't been to a gay bar you're gay
Lol Druff, you're such a Republican. Some straight people have gay friends and go to bars with them. Sometimes gay people end up in straight bars, too.
Btw, Matt Glantz says "I'm in for next time". So isn't the story that Matt Glantz desires to go to a gay bar?

Given that I'm old now, I could probably go into a gay bar and not be bothered that much, but I would find it really irritating to be approached by interested gay guys, and then have to keep rejecting them, including guys who might just be making conversation without the desire to hook up. Whole thing doesn't sound appealing at all.
On the flip side, if gay guys were in a regular bar, that wouldn't bother me at all, because they'd probably assume most guys in there are straight and not bother them -- at least not for hookups.
It's probably not the first time that Doug Polk has been in a gay bar.
It might explain why he broke up with his girlfriend who became a pornstar.

It's not unusual at all nowadays for straight people to go to a gay bar.Quote:

And this should not be a thread. What a joke of a 'story'.
Druff doesn't drink, and presumably has few/no gay friends. Checks out.Quote:

Been to a few in my time with gay friends, never a bad experience. Bathrooms always luxurious compared to my normal "straight-sports/dive-bar" hangouts.
Funny story. I was in New Orleans in Fall of 1992 for the Southern Regional Fall Leadership Conference for Phi Beta Lamba (those who don’t know that’s the college level version of Future Business Leaders of America). Anyway one of my friends and I got to talking to couple gals and we took off to Bourbon Street our first full day there (well that night). The girls were from LSU. Anyway we had a great time and yeah shitfaced anyway one of the last bars we went to they told us to stay close to each other and them. Yeah it was a friggin Gay bar and the girls thought it was hilarious what they did. In hindsight it was worth it I’ll say that much when we got back to the hotel we were staying at the girls made it up to us 😁.Quote:

I ended up crawling back to my hotel room on my hands and knees between being blitzed and exhausted. Passed out on the floor of my hotel room didn’t even make it to bed and one ugly hangover the next day. Probably the drunkest I’ve ever truly been in my life that night at least part of it. But yeah it was an interesting trip. Broke up with my gf I had when I got back in VA when I returned because well being in college and dating a HS senior just wasn’t worth it to me anymore. 🤣🤣😂🤣. (I should clarify I was only 19 at the time so it wasn’t like some huge age difference).
If Doug is looking for a hookup I can fix him up with Johnny, he is single now that his partner beat the fuck out of him and caught a case.
Not sure why anybody would be shocked that Polk might potentially be gay. Even if he’s not who cares. His penitent first bed mates doesn’t have a bearing on his poker playing. ��*♂️
About 3 weeks ago my wife and I were in Chicago with another couple. The other couple (Anna and Dave) lived in the loop for a few years in their early 20s.Quote:

We’re drinking in our hotel rooms and Anna said we’re starting at Beauty bar. She tells us about how it’s a bar where you can get your nails done in the bar and the dance floor is always busy.
We Uber there and I notice every dude in the bar is wearing a wig. I think oh hell no not today satan, (I have zero interest in hanging out in a gay bar myself.) so I ask a guy what’s with the wigs. He says, Oh man we’re on a themed party bus and everyone has to wear these stupid wigs. Okay not a gay bar.
We buy some drinks and hit the dance floor. Now the dance floor is crazy, mother fuckers are grinding, taking off their shirts women are showing their boobs. I’m watching girls make out with girls then make out with guys. I was like wtf is going on but it was so fun.
I go to the bathroom and Dave is behind me in line. There’s three urinals and all of them are full. One of them opens up, so I walk up pull my dick out and start peeing. I noticed the guy next to me, he looks down and looks directly at my dick, zips up his pants walks out. By the time all this happen Dave is standing on the other side of this guy at another urinal. I go I think that guy just looked at my dick, Dave goes he 100% did. LOL
I walk over to wash my hands and this guy is fixing his wig in the mirror. He says In the most stereo typical gay voice possible “ if I gotta wear this damn wig I’m gonna look good in it am I right honey” I laughed and said you look fine.
It was at that moment though I realized it was a gay bar. I say dave wtf this is a gay bar, he just laughed and laughed, then said you didn’t notice dumbass.
My honest opinion, it was the most fun I had all night. The music was awesome other then the empowerment music the Dj started playing after a few hours the dance floor was packed. Almost All the women were good looking and making out with each other, I didn’t have a single issue with people getting in our personal space while we’re dancing. No dudes messed with me, I wasn’t hit on touched or anything weird you may think of that would happen at a gay bar.
What I mean about personal space is, my wife and I are dancing at bottled blinds later that night, some guy walks up and stand between us Obviously wanting to dance with my wife. She’s not interested and he just stands there to be a dick. So I grab him and move him out of the way. We get into a little confrontation that Ended when i asked him to step outside and we can talk there.
every burger needs his buns.
check your privilege, druff.
This post is totally gay.Quote:

A straight, square teetotaller pontificating about the intricacies of gay/straight social norms.

i got kicked out of a gay bar in SF for being straight back in the 90s. was not mad, seemed perfectly reasonable.
Boss and two females from work are gay. They invited people from work out for drinks and we ended up at a gay bar because of a drag show. I went for the lulz. It was pretty chill other than mad dudes making out with each other I obviously wasnt used to seeing that. Nothing bothered me pretty comfortable with myself.
Point is going to a gay bar doeant mean you're gay yourself. It's not the 80s anymore.
But Doug recently got married to Miranda, no?
I get what you are saying, as I used to think that, but its not like that at all.
I was told early on in SF, ’you don’t talk gay, you don’t walk gay, no one is going to confuse you for a gay guy’ & he was right.
That said I never went to one by choice. I went a few times w/work people & never an issue.
But one time i had no choice. CAL-UNC in the NCAA’s,CAL is up at the half.
(Tony Gonzalez was on CAL hoops), but I had dinner plans w/GF at the time, near the Castro.
There is a bar next door to the restaurant, ‘Martini’s’.
I walk in, its packed, 100% guys, 2 TV’s, neither of them on. I walk back out, I’m like WTF?
I look back at the sign, its “Martooni’s, a gay bar”.
I go back in, and ask ‘if I buy a few drinks can you put the CAL game on?”
‘What?!?!?! CAL’s on? OMG, yes!!!’ (in the same voice you would imagine). So I take the one bar seat (so I could see the TV), & she was standing next to me, and was literally swarmed on by the guys there w/in a minute. I didn’t have to entertain her at all.
It was an absolute great experience.

They are fun.
Matt Glantz in a gay bar? What's he gonna do next, drink from the colored people water fountain?
Now you can just show them your PFA posts and they'll escort you to the VIP sectionQuote:

A few years later in my early 20's I went to that bar with my girlfriend who had several lesbian friends. It was one of the coolest bars I've been to atmosphere wise. Played great house music, super open to anyone being there, and some guy (wearing a fedora before 4chan co-opted them) tapped me on the shoulder to let me know I dropped a twenty dollar bill. I suppose he could have been propositioning me but pretty damn sure my wallet was a little light. I've never had that happen in a bar before of since....
I guess if you were alone on dance floor alone you might be inviting something. But who goes to a straight bar even alone? These bars are gay clubs not gay sex clubs (and sex clubs are super strict about consent and how you approach someone).
Also pokerstars VR is really cool if they ever introduce real money its 2005 all over again.
Might be worth going just to get perspective on how every straight girl feels when they go to a bar or pretty much anywhere.Quote:

This wasn't a gay party. It was aimed at everyone, but being in West Hollywood, obviously it had a large gay presence. I forgot what costume I was wearing, but it wasn't anything showing skin or with sexual overtones. My girlfriend at the time was wearing a costume where her big tits were showing a lot of cleavage, and we were a little concerned that dudes might bother her there, even though she was with me.
Anyway, we were half right. Sexual harassment did occur, but it was aimed at me, not her! Not one guy bothered her or made a single comment. However, the whole night I had guys reaching out to touch me, making lewd comments, or attempting to get my attention to talk to them. At first it was funny, but then it got really annoying, and at one point I did remark that I was glad I wasn't female and didn't have to deal with this on a regular basis.
Bottom line is that dudes are awful, whether gay or straight, if they are drinking and are attracted to someone. I never saw any appeal in going into a gay bar. Now that I'm almost 50, I could probably go to a gay bar and not get bothered much, but it's still something that just doesn't appeal to me.
BTW I wasn't insinuating that Doug Polk is gay. I doubt he is. It was just funny that he made the 1-liner comment about loving New Orleans, figuring that nobody would know about the gay bar he visited, and then Matt Glantz coincidentally had a gay friend there who knew of Doug, and told him about it.
Druff,
You have never been to WeHo? I went a few times in my younger days, including The Abbey.
No one hit on me. I don't think anyone would hit on you either.
I've been to the city many times, but not bars there. I'm not a bar person anyway, so gay bars especially never appealed to me.Quote:

I didn't realize there are non-gay bars in NOLA.Quote:

The most popular gay bar in Saint Petersburg, Russia is called blue oyster 👍🏻Quote:

If Druff and I ever meet we're going to a gay bar and we're going to beat down a bunch of fags for fun.
