LGBTQI-Z / Drunk Los Angeles Gay Bar Bans Bachelorette Parties Until Marriage Equality Is Attained
Posted by David Schmader on Tue, May 29, 2012 at 9:59 AM
From the press release sent out by the Abbey, the L.A. gay bar that has, as Frontiers reminds us, been named the world's best gay bar two years in a row by homosexual television network Logo:
“Every Friday and Saturday night, we’re flooded with requests from straight girls in penis hats who want to ogle our go-gos, dance with the gays and celebrate their pending nuptials. They are completely unaware that the people around them are legally prohibited from getting married,” said David Cooley, Founder of The Abbey. “Over the past 22 years, The Abbey has been a place that accepts everyone, gay, straight, lesbian, transgender, bisexual and everything in between. We love our straight girlfriends and they are welcome here, just not for bachelorette parties.”
I am pro-this.
