According to a post over at The Nanfang, Guangzhou is about to get a brand new event catering to the city’s LGBT community, specifically the ladies.
Last month, 32-year-old English teacher Lisa and her friend Jamie were struck by the lack of venues at which lesbians can hang out. This particular discussion led to the conception of an event for lesbians which will be held at the Kiwi Lounge this coming Saturday, May 18. It will provide an opportunity for women to meet other women in a safe and fun environment.
In Guangzhou, homosexual-friendly bars are mostly geared to men. 24 year-old Huizhou native Rachel thinks the misogyny of wider society has had a rippling effect on the LGBT community.
The free event takes place this Saturday, May 18, 2013, with organizers hopeful it will become a monthly event. More details, including address/map here.
