CGiii Comment

Quite ridiculous...asking random people - in various cities - if there's a lesbian bar nearby?

Expect little and ye shall be rewarded...it doesn't take Einstein to work out why lesbian bars are closing...

All J.D. Samson had to do was to look at the bigger picture...bars (gay and straight) are closing across the Western world at an alarming rate...why?

Because...bars ain't what they used to be...smoking ban, inflated prices, complacent ownership, equality, acceptance, dirty toilets, hook-up apps...

There's no need to be academic about this phenomena...it's evolution.

And...was this film directed by a man?!? Think about it!

A ridiculous, redundancy of a film.

The(ir) Blurb...

San Francisco, New York, Washington DC, and New Orleans are four of the biggest gay party meccas in America, yet the cities' lesbian bars keep shutting down. Why are lesbian bars dying while gay male clubs continue to thrive? Is it because of rising rent prices, the stereotype of lesbians moving in after the first date, the rise of the trans rights movement, or something more complex? Broadly host JD Samson travels across America to find the answer.
