Square Pegs, Round Holes – Gays and Lesbians in Straight Marriages
Posted by alibabarika in Gay Lesbian on February 23, 2012
We’ve all heard the old saying, but have you ever thought about what would really happen if you tried to hammer a square peg into a round hole? For one, you would find the corners of the peg would get shaved off as it enters the hole. Next, you would see spaces where the sides of the peg don’t touch the hole. Finally, you might break a lot of pegs in the process.
This old adage makes a great analogy for what life is like for lesbians and gays that find themselves in straight marriages. This may happen through denial, when homosexuals are too overwhelmed by social consequences to acknowledge their true sexual orientation. It may also happen through intent, because a conscious decision is made to reject homosexuality. In neither of these cases do gays or lesbians actually become straight, however. They were and will always be homosexual and that creates a problem which generally tends to escalate over the long term. Let’s take a look at our analogy.

Walking around and listening to the women of this city it is very evident that being gay in the south is no easy task. In fact most women here do not even tell their families it seems. Often ladies share that it would hurt them if there family knew they were gay, and if they are aware it is not something that is discussed openly. There are many countries, cities, and towns on our little blue planet where we can live as proud lesbian women. We can be respected for our rights and choices as human beings.
Progress is slow, however, what are my fellow lesbians doing to break down barriers and educate are neighbors? Are we all working together to change this beautiful city into a rainbow friendly town or conforming to fears and insecurities? What are the messages we are sending to our coming out girls? Are we being responsible with the way we are paving the road for our future gay women? Are we promoting and encouraging gay businesses, artist, and professionals?
Gay Bars – For Unrestrained Joy!
Posted by alibabarika in Gay Lesbian on February 2, 2012
With the fast changing norms the world over, we tend to see the advent of an entirely new cultural set-up: Gay and Lesbian Bars. These new establishments largely work as a drinking stage and serve absolutely or chiefly to a gay and/or lesbian clientele. Gay bars often vary in sizes and can be like a multi-story super-club or some tiny rooms. The gay bars with comparatively smaller set-ups don’t offer too much in terms of luxury but very well provide an avenue where the gays can meet and share drinks. On the other way, the multi-story gay and lesbian bar greets its clientele with quite a few distinct areas and more than one dance floor.
Gay bars kick off their course of action with the serving of alcohol, which is a customary sight for gay and lesbian bars across the world. Actually this serving leads to the foremost goal and that is of offering a place for conversation and relaxation to their gay clientele. Finding gay bars in any metropolitan city like London, New York, Paris etc won’t be a tough task for those interested, as you will come across eye-catching fliers everywhere in the city. Such advertisement boards can easily be observed right in the middle of street, shops and venues, having larger gay presence than the other clubs and events.
