if anyone has suggestions pls help ): i just want all of us to be comfortable but im over going to only lgbtq+ places when we go out, ive been to so many with my friend and the vibe just isn’t there for me.
my friend and i ALWAYS go out with my friend (he’s trans) to the lgbtq+ bars. most of them 85% of the crowd are men and majority is obv lgbtq+. we like going but sometimes we like the clubs/bars we go to since they are more our vibe and not

He might not feel/BE safe in a non queer bar. If you don’t want to go to a bar he wants to go, no one is forcing you to. But he also should not put his safety at risk. It sounds like the queer bar you went to might be a bar for gay men rather than LGBTQ+ people. Are there other queer bars in your area you all can try out?

like only my friend can get play and dance with people while my other friend and i just stand there. 80% of the time our bartenders barely give us alcohol and once we couldn’t even get in because we weren’t men.

he doesn’t and we understand him. it’s more of a general thing but many of the queer bars my friend and i just do not vibe at at all. it also sucks because if we ever wanna flirt or talk to people we can’t.

it’s always what we wants to do and we have to change things around because he’s never comfortable. almost all events he suggests are lgbtq+ and just for once we want to do something not like that. it’s just not fair.

he also wants to go to ones that are like weird and kinky and have harnesses and all that. literally the most recent bar we went to had gay porn in the back.

would you be able to bring your feelings up to him? and can you and your other friend just go out without him sometimes?

If he doesn’t feel safe at other bars, yall should not try to convince him to go to them. Safety is not something to be compromised. Go to other bars without him, and explain so he doesn’t feel as ditched.
