When I talk about the difficulty in finding community in Detroit this is EXACTLY the type of thing I am talking about.<BR/><BR/>Anonymous #1: First of all, if I actually cared what anyone thought about my weight I wouldn't have posted the story in the first place. Besides, one can lose weight. Ugly is forever.<BR/><BR/>Anonymous #2: I don't have a huge problem with the Eagle, if I go with friends it can be fine. But do you really think I want to recommend it as a place for out of town visitors? I'm sorry, I can't do that. And it turns out I talked with conference attendees who went on Friday, and they were like, "OK, yeah, we get your point."<BR/><BR/>The other issue is that if I'm going to be one of the only people in a bar, as is usually the case when I go to the Eagle, I'd rather have it be someplace a little nicer.<BR/><BR/>I do get what the Eagle is all about, and I don't mind that kind of bar typically. I am not a fan of Pronto either. The Eagle is just pretty low on my list (although above the R&R, if that's any consolation).<BR/><BR/>Anonymous #3 (a lot of anonymity on here): You can call it what you want, I call it having standards, and expecting better. There is no reason the gay community in Detroit should still be patronizing crappy bars in bad neighborhoods as our only option.<BR/><BR/>Maybe you don't want a more vibrant gay community in the city, and that's fine. But we are never going to attract people if we keep serving up the same steaming heap of shit social options we served in the 80's. I, for one, am tired of having to defend being gay and living in Detroit to everyone I meet when I travel.<BR/><BR/>Susanarosa: You are a peach, thank you for springing to my defense.Supergay Detroithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10169189092634498259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585668860753081421.post-86451239421281257112008-02-12T21:14:00.000-05:002008-02-12T21:14:00.000-05:00Someone is feeling cunty, hmmm?You're beautiful ju...Someone is feeling cunty, hmmm?<BR/><BR/>You're beautiful just the way you are SG.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585668860753081421.post-28398485770195186682008-02-12T21:03:00.000-05:002008-02-12T21:03:00.000-05:00Unfortunately in order to be gay you must adhere t...Unfortunately in order to be gay you must adhere to SG's rigid set of rules and decorum.

Frank is very supportive of the community, and is very generous to organiztions. The Eagle hosted a fundraiser for Triangle on Friday night featuring the current Mr IML. All this was also connected to the Creating Change meeting. This may not be your kind of bar, but I would rather go there then deal with the attitude of Pronto anyday!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585668860753081421.post-23440711944550706972008-02-12T12:59:00.000-05:002008-02-12T12:59:00.000-05:0020 lbs?
