I had a question (admin deleted) about girls getting their hair cut in the barbers - ok it was a bit tongue in cheek, but the last time I was in the barbers, there was a girl having her hair cut before me.


No law against that of course, but a bit unusual, in fact I've never come across it before. Wasn't meant to be an insult. Maybe I'm just a bit straight laced.

I posted too and that was deleted. I don't understand why...this is the Lounge. My post referred to DJKQ flirting with two dogs (Woof and Artful)...again tongue in cheek. Those 3 posters' posts have been deleted too. I thought it was OK to go off topic in the lounge.:(

I agree with you Narnia and others...this is the lounge. The thread should be elsewhere, maybe even in the what's on section if is to be kept purely on topic. Or maybe someone should start a thread 'lesbianism in East Dulwich' where woof, artful, and others can post without fear of being deleted. Should I start complaining to admin everytime any of the guys post on my ladies football thread? (btw mac...look at what women get charged for a cut in a haridressers, compared to a barbers....you'll see the answer, and if I had short hair I'd do the same)


Back to on topic though...Strawbs when is the next Rye in the Rovers game as there has been nothing on the FB page for a month?

I used to go to a barbers to get my hair cut when it was short. I am not a lesbian. I also used to go to a particular hairdressers because they charged the same price for both men and women. I left them when they started charging more for the women.

I would also like to know if there is anywhere local to find gay friends. I've lived in East Dulwich for nearly a year now and I haven't found any gay bars/pubs here. I don't think the drinks at the Rye are organised by the pub itself, afaik it's by members of another forum who are otherwise not connected to the Rye. My partner and I did try it on a couple of occasions but it was a bit hit and miss - at the first one there were easily 60 people which was a bit overwhelming and the second time only two others turned up besides myself, my partner and another couple we know, so that was a bit weird. As the OPs sister will know Hackney has more than it's fair share, what's the deal!?

There aren't really any bars in ED. The nearest proper gay bar I would say is Southern Pride on Norwood High Street. If you don;t already know it, it has a pub at the front (where they do cabaret as well) and a club at the back with another bar and a good sized beer garden too. Clapham High Street has some bars too - more male than female though.


There used to be someone on here organising a pink drinks night every once in a while too but there hasn't been one of those for a while.

That's what I thought...or pubs or any gay/les venues at all, or even nights! How disappointing. Well if JD Wetherspoon doesn't take off maybe there will be a gap in the market for that venue! C'mon, amongst all those buggies on LL, I've seen a few crew cuts (please don't delete, *I am gay* after all and am too sozzled to work out my tongue from my cheek!)


So why are there no gay places to go then?

I like your post....but won't add to it as I'm in enough trouble as it is apparently lol!


I've lived in this area for twenty years and there's never been anything around here as far as I'm aware (apart from the monthly drinks at the Rye Hotel). We could organise something amongst ourselves though. Maybe restart the forum Pink Drinks. Can't remember who used to organise that (one of the guys I think), but it would just take picking a day, venue, and putting it in the 'what's on' section. It would be good to have something locally that's both les/gay in addition to the Rye Hotel thing once a month maybe.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
