I think it's sad that there is so much self imposed seperatism in Ibiza. Walk far enough down the street of virgins and you really feel as though you shouldn't be there. Some of the bars higher up in the old town have you feeling like every eye is one you and it's time to go back down the hill. Sometimes it just doesn't feel welcoming. I can't imagine there could be a single bar in Ibiza where a gay man would feel like that due to other people.
I'm sure most gay men would prefer a mix of gay, straight, male and female as it makes a night out and life more interesting. Ok, an all gay bar/club means gay men feel more relaxed to be gay but it must get a bit monotonous.
Do they, in the main, stick together because they feel ostrcised elsewhere or is it, as the article suggests, due to a revultion of 'straights'?
I do hope the article is just aimed at genuine trash (if so, there's not as much as there used to be) and not a portrayal of gay self importance or even, dare I say it elitism.
If it is aimed at trash, why is it written as a gay/straight divide?
I don't think an article like this should be congratulated, even if it is meant jokingly, as there's enough prejudism already and it will just encourage it.....on both sides.
Ibiza's not supposed to be about prejudism.
