It's kind of sad, I'm taking a class on Gender Bending this semester, and our professor (who, while extremely dedicated to queer studies and extremely open, doesn't have a lot of experience with beyond-Beloit queer life) always wants to make the arguement that gay bars should be safe spaces for queer people to go for respite, and the rest of us (the majority of which are queer) try and explain how that isn't likely to happen anytime soon.
Sometimes I really don't understand our "community."
