	Gay bar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		One of the oldest gay bars was the White Swan, on Vere Street, in London, which in 1810 was raided (called the Vere Street Coterie), leading to two executions for the then crime of sodomy, and which was frequently the scene of gay marriages carried out by the Reverend John Church [1].
		Gay bars and nightclubs are often segregated by sex, though this is more common in some places than others, and people of the "wrong" sex may be unwelcome or even barred from entry.
		Gay bars are often welcoming of transgender people, and drag shows are a common feature in many gay bars.

	Gay - the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The term gay, or lesbian in women, is preferred by many homosexuals because itdescribes the overall orientation of the person and doesn’t focus the definition only in sexual terms.
		Gay originally was used purely as an adjective ("he is a gay man" or "he is gay").
		It has been claimed that "gay" was derived as an acronym for "Good As You", but this is a fake etymology based on a backronym.

	Nightclub - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Nightclubs are always associated with music and have a dance floor, however small: a drinking establishment without music is a saloon or bar, pub or tavern.
		Though a nightclub may have a floor show or other entertainment unsuitable for minors, the music, dancing and socializing of a nightclub are secondary in a "strip joint".
		Also, restaurants or supper clubs may provide music and entertainment simlar to that provided by a nightclub, the main difference being that food is the main attraction at these establishments, whereas entertainment is the main attraction at a nightclub.

		Gay culture is widely acknowledged for being on the cutting-edge of fashion trends, art appreciation and any of the performing arts.
		The usual Gay Pride rhetoric was spilling from the stage at the post-parade rally: gay is good; gay people are your brothers and sisters; each and every member of the gay community cares about each and every member of the gay community; it's all about love and caring and respect.
		Gay Pride is, simply, one time each year when the very wide, very broad, very diverse gay and lesbian population--our "community," to use a word Savage dislikes--gathers together to enjoy the heady feeling of being in the majority.

		"The bombing of a lesbian and gay bar was a cowardly, despicable act of hatred," Lambda Staff Attorney David Buckel said, adding that whatever the attacker's motives, "We will not be bombed back into the closet." Buckel noted the similarities of the attack to the January bombing of an Atlanta-area women's health clinic.
		That connection, plus the fact that the bar that was bombed is known to be popular among gay women, suggest that misogyny and anti-gay hate fueled this violence." A powerful bomb filled with nails exploded February 21 on the patio of the Otherside Lounge, an Atlanta nightclub especially popular among lesbians.
		Lambda, the oldest and largest lesbian and gay legal organization, will open a Southern Regional Office in Atlanta later this year, making it the first national gay organization with a presence in the South.

		In the years after Bulldogs first opened in 1978, the gay nightclub’s clientele was composed almost exclusively of white gay men.
		The “to each, his own” approach to gay nightlife is generally tolerated, but segregation among gay political and community groups often leads to uncomfortable conversations.
		Often, fl gay men and lesbians argue that mainstream organizations don’t adequately address their concerns within the groups’ broader agendas, and may resist joining out of fear of what sacrifices they will be expected to make, Cook said.

		While primarily a dining and nightclub establishment, the venture has other elements that includes brand wellness products and eventually production of a reality television show which should make any and all investors gay, in the most old-fashioned definition of the word, and prove that there is no alternative to being successful.
		High-end gays and lesbians would rather go to a place that has a mixture instead of the label of 'gay' or 'lesbian.' Las Vegas is the best location to do that.
		With a finite potential market which he estimates at six million gays and lesbians, Amiri says he would need to draw on most that visited the city to succeed financially and no casino would give directions if it were located in another casino.
