I've been to both gay and lesbian bars. The gay bar had a special night on the first Friday of each month for us.
I knew some others that went, so went to check it out. Never had a problem with any of the guys. Got to make new friends who weren't virtual (online) friends. A good time was usually had.
Not going every weekend or every month helped alleviate being bored, IMHO. Which could be said for any bar. However, many are bar flies and can enjoy going to a bar more often. It's not for everybody, that's for sure.
The gay bar was a place to go late at night into the wee hours of the morning, well after the malls, etc. are closed. So if your out, and feel like being out even longer than most establishments are open, a bar is a likely choice, is it not?
