My new gay bar
2010-08-10
So, the Muslim investors championing the construction of the new mosque near Ground Zero claim it's all about strengthening the relationship between the Muslim and non-Muslim world.

As an American, I believe they have every right to build the mosque - after all, if they buy the land and they follow the law - who can stop them?

Which is, why, in the spirit of outreach, I've decided to do the same thing.

I'm announcing tonight, that I am planning to build and open the first gay bar that caters not only to the west, but also Islamic gay men. To best express my sincere desire for dialogue, the bar will be situated next to the mosque Park51, in an available commercial space.

This is not a joke. I've already spoken to a number of investors, who have pledged their support in this bipartisan bid for understanding and tolerance.

As you know, the Muslim faith doesn't look kindly upon homosexuality, which is why I'm building this bar. It is an effort to break down barriers and reduce deadly homophobia in the Islamic world.

The goal, however, is not simply to open a typical gay bar, but one friendly to men of Islamic faith. An entire floor, for example, will feature non-alcoholic drinks, since booze is forbidden by the faith. The bar will be open all day and night, to accommodate men who would rather keep their sexuality under wraps - but still want to dance.

Bottom line: I hope that the mosque owners will be as open to the bar, as I am to the new mosque. After all, the belief driving them to open up their center near Ground Zero, is no different than mine.

My place, however, will have better music.

#15  Across the street should be the judging stand for the Gay Pride Parade. I'm thinking a massage parlour for overstressed Wall Streeters in the neuihbourhood. Seems like something a local family could manage.

Other bar name possibilities:
Mecca Mary's
The Meat Madrassa
The Kiester Casbah

Possible drink names:
Djinn and Tonic
Mecca Mimosa
Sufi Seabreeze
Muftini
Harvey Carbomber
Gitmo Libre
and of course, the non-alcoholic Shari'a Temple

Perhaps a big banner out front that says:
Don't Ask, Don't Ululate
might help build some bridges as well.

#10  All I know is the prayer mats should be of an easily cleanable material...

Like those business carpets that the service comes and switches out every week day.

#3  I would think that for Muslims that they would be risking life and limb (and family!) to be seen going into that bar.
