Lesbian site claims women are all at it

A website for gay women is claiming nearly half of all women have had a gay experience. They asked 1,000 women and when you look at the question it includes "fantasies" so room for debate there. 

Charlotte Dingle who edits the website, Biscuit, says , ‘While not necessarily employing the rigour of a serious academic study, Biscuit’s survey into female sexuality does seem to bear out anecdotal evidence that women are increasingly viewing their own sexuality as fluid."

Hmmm...

Hard On at Union - Sat 19 April

Oi, YOU! Kneel before the altar of cock and prepare for the kinda res-erection Mary Magdalene knew all about.  Yip, it's time for Suzie's Easter Hard On and she's willing to break a few eggs to um, make a metaphor I can't quite get to the end of. Help! Whatever, getting nailed good and hard is the reason for the season you reprobates so get down there and show some respect to the original Easter egg *unt.

Anyways, Suzie says: Put an erection in the resurrection as Hard On returns Easter Bank Holiday Saturday April 19^th, 10pm – late. 

"Continue reading" and get nailed (we can't help ourselves).

Manbar loses appeal but survives

Chris from Manbar writes: Unfortunately we lost the appeal for Manbar to keep our "regulated entertainment licence". However MANBAR REMAINS OPEN and keep it's 3am alcohol sales licence. 

 

What does this mean exactly? Well it means Manbar stays open and will now be trading with background music. Sadly, no more DJs. We will be operating with low level music for the time being. 

 

What next? The bar will be applying for it's regulated entertainment licence again in the near future with all the stipulations possible to safeguard the venue without causing any noise nuisance. Hopefully the council will grant us back our licence! Also the government recently deregulated entertainment before 11pm each day so we will offering early evening entertainment and currently working out the schedule for this. 

 

Many thanks for the support through this case, luckily Manbar remains open - so be sure to come by for a drink. 

Manbar's future: we'll know on Thursday

We hear from Chris at Manbar that he should know by Thursday if Westminster are going to shut his bar down. There's been a gay bar there for decades but one complainant has got them on the ropes - and tens of thousands expended on lawyers. We'll keep you posted. 

Trade competition closed

Well, quite a LOT of interest! We've forward three winners to the club who'll be in touch. Sorry if you didn't win but tix are stil on sale. GO!

Manbar at risk of closure by Tory Westminster

Manbar, the huge big fun and independent gay bar on Charing Cross Road will be forced to close if it loses a costly legal battle with Westminster City Council early in April.

The bar, which is on the site of 79CXR, ,which ran for eighteen years before being sold to gay entrepreneur Chris Amos, opened as Manbar in 2012.

Since opening, Manbar has surged in popularity serving over 3000 customers a week and provided a unique and truly authentic gay space in central London.

Repeated complaints from one resident two floors above the bar led to a licensing review last summer in which Westminster Council banned regulated entertainment (the playing of music) until such time as improvements were made. Manbar has appealed and has continued to trade pending the appeal hearing which comes before Westminster Magistrates on Monday 7th April 2014.

Invitation to UK's first same-sex marriage

Peter Tachell invites you to the first same sex marriage in the UK: Islington Town Hall this Friday, March 28, from 11pm. 

The first - or one of the first - same-sex marriages in the UK will take place at one minute past midnight this Friday, 28 March. 

Peter McGraith and David Cabreza, who have been partners for 17 years, will marry.
 
Their chief witness will be the human rights campaigner Peter Tatchell, who has spearheaded the campaign for marriage equality for the last 22 years. Together with OutRage!, he organised five same-sex couples to mount the first challenge to the ban on same sex marriage, way back in 1992.
 
The two grooms will be joined at the Town Hall by a large throng of friends, well-wishers and gay equality supporters from 11pm for the big countdown.

Serious incident at Club Colosseum

We've had reports of a serious incident at Club Colosseum.  Noise woke a Damaged neighbour of the club at 5am. He saw: three ambulsnces, multiples police cars, four min buses of police, plain police car and the police helicopter is circling the area - suggesting a manhunt.  The police are out in hi-vis partoling the area which they do to reassure - not helpful for catching their man. Pretty impressive work by the Met but sadly well rehearsed.

Genre Oscar Party at Manbar with a screening of Gravity - this Sunday

More info here... 

 

Ernst and Young send subliminal messages

Branding. Very important. You've got to communicate your brands key values via a name and logo.

Well, Ernst & Young do some kind of counting thing. They had a really 80s pants logo and wanted something fresh, dynamic, energetic. They rebranded as EY with a bright yellow logo.

GPScort - good or bad? Have they trafficked this poor lady?

We ran an ad for the incredibly well put together GPScort over Christmas.

We did wonder about the ethics as we were worried about straight prostitution where there's a desperately sad side to things. Then they sent us this pic - was the woman in the picture one of those trafficked women forced to whore themselves about town for cash? 

We then spoke to some guys who do rent and they were totally in charge. We then got a mate to try the thing and he went off grid for a while owing to having a rather good time.

As for the lady? Well, she looks sorted. Chicks with dicks are apparently quite good. Domination of pics is an extra tho.

 

 

Trade at Egg - Sat 29 March

Quick heads-up: After a couple of banging parties (including one where Ruka Lenska turned up - yes, that wasn't a guy pulling off looking like a woman) the next one is scheduled for 29 March from noon. 

We Googled "Trade Egg" for more info and the second link was UK Egg Statistics. Did you know: 

• Of the total 6.6 million cases of eggs packed by packing stations in the UK, 5 million (74 per cent) were packed in England and Wales. Throughput has been steadily increasing recently to a peak of 6.8 million cases in Q2 2013. The latest data shows a slight fall in throughput as a result of a smaller laying flock.

• Broken down by type, eggs from enriched cages accounted for 52 per cent of the total throughput whilst free range eggs accounted for 42 per cent. Barn and organic eggs together accounted for 6 per cent. 

Sounds like Ms Malice found a sideline! We used to play what's now known as Deal of No Deal guessing how many would come out of a cubicle at Turnmills and wonder how many hens he's packed in there. Battery clubbers meet hen nights at Egg? He's sure packing them in and we look forward to being Battered Clubbers on the 29th March.

Hard On Oct at Union - Sat 15 Feb

Where are you taking your sweet Valentine? Quaglino's? A romantic twirl on the eye? A candlelit supper and a movie?  F*ck that and take your date around on a lead or put on a show giving them a good time at Suzie's Hard On this Saturday. You can always do the candle there too... Preferably over their nipples.

New Campaign attacks IOC ‘hypocrisy’

There's another campaign trying to shame the International Olympic Committee into remembering it's principles.  Check it out and perhaps get behind it as they want to highlight the “hypocrisy and contradiction” within the International Olympic Committee across primary social media channels for the duration of the 2014 Winter Olympics.

Will it work? We hope.

WANTED: London's most prolific club whore to help make a change

We're building a new clubbing site and events calendar London needs and could do with some help to get it right. To that end, we need London's biggest, most together club whore to give us their view on when's best to arrive at the various clubs and sex venues we're going to be listing... plus any other insights you've got.  We're sociable but we just can't do them all so if you fancy imparting sharing your knowledge email us now!
