I hate crowds, am not a fan of the gay scene, am an introvert, and can dance even less than Taylor Swift, so I couldn't give less of a **** actually. Technology is the future, tbh

I've never been to a gay club and I really have no desire to. Everything I hear about clubs just makes it sound like a chore.

Yall are missing out. Being drunk in a gay club when they are blasting your fave and you are with your hennies is just so damn fun

Gay clubs have always been trash, my city has these lgbt friendly parties in straight clubs and those are the best

I'm not going to an app. In my app experience I almost never meet anyone I'm even remotely attracted to in person...or you are stuck chatting for weeks before meeting and realizing you are not interested when you finally meet....or that guy you turned down in the app is actually good looking in real life. Guys have hit on me in real life out of the random blue based on seeing me in the app.

Grindr or an app isn't a substitute for real life.

When it comes to sexual attraction the club is actually a more efficient use of time.

In person is always the best way to meet people. Grindr is a waste of time. It's amazing how many guys say they want whatever but making plans with them is like pulling teeth. The club scene is okay as long as you moderate your time there.

I don't mind if a guy I'm chatting or dancing with gets frisky. But the nerve of strangers to reach in someone's pants and literally touch your junk is appalling. Like ask first. But it's not about touching a penis, it's about dominance or a sick perversion.

My advice to anyone who has yet to go to a club would be to not go alone. Don't get wasted drunk without a friend who's going to stay sober or semi-sober. And remember, cameras are everywhere. Not just cellphones but security cameras and hidden cameras. So watch what you do. It's one thing to take your shirt off on the dance floor but it's another to have your privates exposed. Not that it happens often but sometimes men get really messed up and pants come off. I've seen it 3 times plus one time when a guy was pantsed by another. He was photographed.

Don't let a moment of fun turn into a permanent reminder of youthful stupidity. If you're going to live in the same area, odds are you're going to know the same gays for years. And never, not for a second, think that the guy you slept with 4 years ago won't know the guy you're really into today. Photos are kept and stories are told.

And that concludes my lecture

Of course gay clubs and bars are going to be less and less popular, people that don't like clubbing/going to bars don't have to go there to get laid anymore.

I love the gay nightlife even though the gay community in my area is relatively small compared to big cities, I would never feel safe enough in a straight club to have fun or even to have a drink, and I know most of us feel the same way so idk what he meant by gentrification.

I don't agree. nightlife is dying cause for some reason everyone is becoming anti social. depressed anxious. not cause they're using an app to get dicked down lol

If meeting other gays is z problem, you don't even have to rely on apps or clubs nowadays in *most* places. You literally can go to a college campus, the mall, hell your own job (I know from experience in all cases) and find several other hunties, even some you'd be willing to date.
