Girl Walks Into a Gay Bar
An attractive, heterosexual female colleague of mine, who shall remain nameless, went dancing with some friends at R-Place last night. Common wisdom dictates that she went dancing at R-Place to cut loose in a comfortable environment that would free her from the shackles of getting hit on by obnoxious straight guys. But try this one on for size: Said female colleague reports that she gets hit on at gay bars more than she gets hit on at straight bars, and that last night at R-Place was no different.
There are, we reasoned, two potential explanations for this: (1) the dudes that hit on her are bi, or (2) the fact that cute girls love to dance at gay clubs (i.e., part of the "common wisdom" above) has become such common knowledge that straight dudes are now infiltrating these establishments for the express purpose of pulling surprise attacks on pretty ladies who assume, based simply on the environs, that a given guy's gay, thus decreasing his odds of getting the brush after the first "hey, gorgeous." Since my nightlife these days is pretty much limited to my deck, my office, and the Tug Tavern, I'd love it if someone could offer some more seasoned insight here in the comments section.
