  Do We Have Gay Bars in Maine?

  Kind of&#x;

  We used to have Styxx in Portland but that closed down years ago and we really don&#x;t contain much to replace it with.

  We&#x;re no Portland, Oregon but if you step down our streets you&#x;d think there would be a lot more gay-friendly places given our demographic.

  For those of you who are unaware, Ogunquit is actually where our main gay-bar scene is. The charming coastal town is a safe space for the community and suggestions more LGBTQ+-friendly bars and businesses than other parts of our state.

  This spot in Ogunquit is actually one of the biggest lgbtq+ bars and clubs in New England and they regularly host drag performances.

  It&#x;s open seven days a week and hosts themed events to keep us on our toes and entertained. They have two dance rooms, two outdoor decks, three bars, and is right down the street from the beach. Not a bad setup if you ask me.

  PORTLAND, Maine — The August edition of the Maine Gay Task Force Newsletter sported some outrageous, over-the-top and campy headlines.

  &#;Free dope on pinballs,&#; interpret one. &#;Poop on Pope Paul,&#; study another.

  The biggest, and fanciest hand-drawn headline on the photocopied publication&#;s front page  shouted, &#;Exclusive discovery of long-lost historical nude centerfold of Frederick the Great.&#;

  In contrast, the scant ads inside the paper are all low-key and understated, such as one for Sybil&#;s, a lesbian prevent then on Middle Street. Its uncomplicated text only ad reads: &#;A easy reality for lgbtq+ people.&#;

  That&#;s it.

  The ads are just what Megan MacGregor was looking for when she spent months of her COVID lockdown combing the LGBTQ+ archives at the University of Southern Maine for communication about Portland&#;s historic — but long-gone — gay bars.

  In all, MacGregor was competent to confirm the existence of 17 historic gay bars. As part of June Pride Month, she will guide a virtual multimedia tour of the culturally significant and historically impo

  Portland, Maine, Only Has 2 Gay Bars – Here’s Why We Might Not See Another One

  It seems that under a decade ago, the LGBTQ community had several bars to call their own in Portland, Maine, but is now down to two.

  That would be Blackstone's, Portland's oldest gay block, and a newer establishment, Cocktail Mary.

  With Portland being the progressive, gay-friendly city that it is, it makes you wonder what happened? And will there be another one?

  The answer to both of those questions isn&#x;t truly known, but with changing times and progression toward acceptance of all sexual preferences and identities, it can&#x;t be ruled out that everyone just started blending in as one community.

  The LGBTQ community getting together at a local brewery, dive bar, or pub has become the norm, especially over the last decade.

  Most of the members of the community that I've spoken with enjoy Blackstone's and Cocktail Mary, but are missing the often traditional dance floor. However, in order for that to happen, a much larger establishment would call for to open, which
