Did you ever think that this 300-pound friend was not really her girlfriend but riding shotgun to ensure that her drunken friend didnt take off in a sports car with a drunken sailor or marine or soldier or whatever branch you were in?
I knew a lot of hetero female friends who would (and some still do) go to the gay clubs to dance because 1) they play the best dance music and have the best DJs 2) the best dance floors and sound systems and 3) as a female you can dance and party and pretty much stay unmolested. Of course back when the gay clubs didnt have too many lesbians.
And a single girl might meet a great gay boyfriend. This is the gay guy who is just manly enough to pass for straight, can lift heavy things, move furniture, might even have some carpentry skills but isnt interested in sex and likes to talk, shop, decorate and watch chick flicks. Think Will & Grace? And with my recent bad experiences with hetero guys I might be ready for the gay boyfriend.
Wow!We went to them because we were not old enough to get a drink in a reguler bar.I can assure you,the girl and I had some good vibes going on till her girlfriend came along.And I definately would not have offered her a ride if I knew she was gay to begin with.As far as the 'dancing'and such,who cared.I was trying to get some action,not become an activist.At the time,decorating houses was not in the cards.You may be right.You may need a gay boyfriend.
