Albert Einstein said, “the only source of knowledge is experience.” With that in mind, as part of my adventure, 1 Year, 10 Projects, 100 Discoveries, ten of the discoveries are about experiences I’ve always wanted to have. This post is part of that project. You can see all 10 Experiences here and the entire project here. Enjoy the moments, I sure am!
This is one experience I didn’t plan on. To be honest, before having the experience, I didn’t even consider going to a Lesbian bar an “experience”. I simply considered it a “normal” occurrence. But, nevertheless, an experience I did have.
One of my best friends happens to like girls the way I like boys This weekend, I accompanied her to a Betty fundraiser at Posh Nightclub. While it was a fun, intimate venue complete with stripper poles, the majority of the crowd wasn’t quite our speed. The part of the crowd that was our speed was heading to Kitty Bar, the girl portion of Krave, which has been voted the #1 gay nightclub in the country. We said, “What the heck,” and headed there as well.
Admittedly, the crowd at Kitty Bar wasn’t what I expected. But then again, I’m not sure what I expected. The best part? It was a club filled with the craziest mixture of women I’ve ever seen. Tall, short, skinny, fat, black white all dancing together. There were high maintenance girls dressed to the nines in club attire dancing right along with the low maintenance girls in sweatshirts. There were girls that even I could peg as lesbians and others that I wouldn’t have guessed in a million years. It was a melting pot of cultures, ideas and ideals. It was a mixture that is rarely, if ever seen, at other nightclubs. Heck, it was a mixture that is rarely seen anywhere. While we might preach integration, we often stick to our look alike cliques. At Kitty Bar, the only clique was that they were all girls looking for a place to openly share their love, dance and have a few drinks.
While I was a bit out of my element, it was an experience that made an everlasting impression.
