Incident at NYC lesbian bar Cubbyhole sparks debate about who belongs there
Donate todayA minor altercation at a longtime West Village bar has revived this question online and prompted debate about queer spaces and whom they “belong” to. Like many viral conversations, this one started on TikTok.about her night out at Cubbyhole, a lesbian bar on West 12th Street that has been a community staple for more than 30 years.
In her video, Stout described feeling unwelcome and also taken aback as the bar was full of “flamboyantly gay men.” She did not respond to a request for comment for this article. Katie Pypes said she created a TikTok account, @im.that.lesbian to tell her side of the story after a video about the evening went viral.Pypes said that on that particular day in January, she was enjoying a regular night at Cubbyhole, where she met her wife nearly a decade ago.
Pypes said that after Stout’s friend group stepped in to clarify that the man was with them, he asked her, “If I wasn’t with her, would that be a problem?” “Go back and scroll through the comments of any lesbian bar that’s ever existed that had an Instagram,” Gieseking said. “I would not be surprised if you didn’t see some sort of incident like this.”“I follow all the lesbian bar Instagrams and all the TikToks, and the attention pales in comparison to this incident,” Gieseking said. “I think the reason is because this was about not letting in cis straight men, and they are very powerful.
As the conversation spiraled out in the nature of viral TikTok debates, with person after person weighing in with their own take on the situation, the consensus seemed to coalesce on Pypes’ side, noting that the original video didn’t tell the whole story of why Pypes had questioned Stout’s straight male friend.
