It's nice in theory, but we aren't that far yet.

I remember just after Queer as Folk got broadcast, all the hen parties used to go to Canal Street cos of what they thought it was like when it was on TV, and because it was safe

Because they came, all the straight guys came looking for the hen parties and it slowly decended from there so that some bars became no-go.

Luckily they have all moved on, but it is still going to take a while
