Gay bars once thrived in Saginaw, but none remain. LGBTQ+ advocates want a revival. |
It's been years:For decades, gay bars served as premiere gathering spaces for adults identifying as LGBTQ+. But, in many places, they have disappeared in recent years. Saginaw last housed such an establishment more than five years ago, whereas there were multiple establishments operating at the same time only a decade earlier. Why did they disappear? The decline in part was the result of the popularity of online dating services as well as the increased acceptance of LGBTQ+-identifying patrons at businesses that once shunned them, said gay advocates. Still, there remains a desire for local establishments where those groups can gather socially. Pride month continues: If you are looking for a social gathering, Pride events are taking place in Grand Rapids this weekend. The Great Lakes Bay Pride Festival is taking place a week later. |
