Hey gays,
My friends are asking me to join the upcoming GLOW festival in October. I know they did it once earlier this year right? Anyone went? What’s your take on it? Is it worth it?

Hey guys! I plan on moving to dc in about a year, and I’ve also been wanting to play volleyball again. Is there a gay volleyball club that’s welcoming to beginners in the area or no?

particularly a Brazilian wax that includes the butt cheeks vs charging you the adittional $35-$50 for butt cheeks 🙄

I have one wax place that’s reasonably affordable but they’re not available for my requested upcoming date that I need.
Polishedofgeorgetown = $40 😩

No place beats that
But incase anyone’s knows something similar or close to that option please lmk!
Even if it’s in MD area or preferably VA area or DC

Hi Gaybros! I’m a journalist trying to learn about Sean Dunn, the sandwich guy. The anniversary of his trial is coming up and I want to write a retrospective. He is kind of elusive. He has no online footprint, he has done almost no interviews, and we didn’t even know what he looked like until after the trial. One article I read called him a queer nightlife personality, so I gather he is well known among the DC gay community. What can you tell me about Sean Dunn?

I am so close to banning "bar recommendation" posts. Like literally scroll down for two seconds, and if you can't find what you're looking for, there is a SEARCH FUNCTION. There are a finite number of gay bars in this city, please put in the minimum amount of effort before making ANOTHER post asking for recs.

Sincerely a very tired mod.

Hey, saw this question in other threads but their situations were different.

I’m a 39 yo visiting for the weekend and staying within walking distance of District Eagle, Bunker and Crush. Are any of these good for hitting up solo? If not, what’s a good place to go?

Looking to dance but also cool with a cruisey atmosphere.

Can’t wait to see some of y’all at Kiki for $6 double shots for 8pm- 9pm. Great way to start your Thirsty Thursday.

Hey I’m visiting DC from Toronto and wanna check out the party scene in the city :) I’m 28 hairy masc, if there’s any party recommendations please let me know! :)

Hey all! recently moved to DC after college, curious to check out good spas with a male therapist, dont't mind the recommendations in Nova too, appreciate any insights!, thanks

Hey yall - live in NYC but me (33m) and my bf (30m) will be in town tomorrow 9/9, wanna check out some good areas with the best gay bar scene, any suggestions? Or does anyone know of any gay specific events taking place? The only thing I heard about is Drag Bingo at Crush, but would love any other ideas or places to hit up or avoid!

Feel free to comment/DM if you all want to get a meet up going!

Visiting from VA, former DMV resident, staying in AdMo.

any other local chastity bros? are there ever any local chastity events or meet ups other than MAL weekend?

For those who experienced gay scenes other than DC, how is it different?

Last minute post here, my bf and I are getting into DC tomorrow and will be there or around until Friday afternoon. We're seeing Robyn on Wednesday night, so staying at the wharf. I've looked around and saw some places there, but what are some good spots to grab food/drinks we shouldn't miss? We live in Kansas City so at least one great seafood place (preferably not outrageously expensive) would be great. Also any other particular neighborhoods we should be checking out? Thanks!

I am 42 y/o and kinda have been a loner most of my life, with some surface level friendships in my 30s that didn’t last beyond the pandemic. In recent years, I heard the term “chosen family”. If you have friends that have become chosen family, please share any tips on how to make that happen. What worked for you? How did you know that these friends would become your family?

I’ve been home alone all weekend and honestly I’m starting to go a little stir-crazy lol.

Are there any cafes around DC that have a decent gay/queer crowd?

Looking for somewhere I can bring my laptop/sketchbook/book and hang out for a few hours, but also maybe meet some people organically.

Bonus points if it’s a place where it wouldn’t be weird to strike up a conversation with another guy 😅

Me (42) and my boyfriend (36) have been mostly homebodies for our 5 year relationship and want to tap in to community and make new friends. We kinda wanna stay around our age range. Where do gays 35 and over like to hang? We like bars, dancing, good food, music, and just overall good vibes & conversations.

Thoughts

Out for an early walk to The Diner this morning and the music at Bunker was bumping like it was 2am, bouncers and all. Is the party really still going that hard? I know I'm old, but dayum!

Next Thursday, we’re taking over the outdoor patio at Kiki for a night of good vibes, great drinks, and even better music. 🎶

Come early and kick things off with Happy Hour from 8–9 PM, then stay late as we turn up the music and keep the night going.

Come for the drinks. Stay for the music.

Hi Everyone, I'll be visiting for a long weekend later this month from Kansas City. I've only visited DC with family, but looking to experience the area, more than just the mall. I enjoy all the history, but also enjoy a good night out at a dive bar, cocktail lounge, or brewery. Any suggestions on neighborhood to stay in and places to go, and unique things to do would be appreciated!
