"Out of all the contested gay topics-age-gap relationships, sexual positions, sex tourism -circuit parties might be the most divisive. Circuit queens say they're the most fun and inclusive form of nightlife, while their detractors say that's only the case if you a fit certain criteria: fit and hot."
"This past weekend, an EDM festival called Wire Fest was held in Bushwick, the ultra-hip Brooklyn neighborhood known for subversive queer nightlife. Held at Knockdown Center, a well-known venue that often hosts circuit events, photos from the event showed throngs of shirtless men crammed into a very small space."
"Granted, Wire Fest isn't explicitly gay, and tries to counter those stereotypes. Regardless of the differences, the debate persists. Summer party season is open us! This week, we want to know: What's your opinion on circuit parties? CLICK HERE TO LET US KNOW... and don't be shy! We will publish the best responses!"
"So wire was all the terror zone," posted one observer. The pics inflamed loads of debate and discussion."
An EDM festival called Wire Fest took place in Bushwick at Knockdown Center, a venue associated with circuit events. Photos showed many shirtless men packed into a small space, sparking intense debate. The controversy centered on circuit parties, which are often contested alongside other gay topics such as age-gap relationships, sexual positions, and sex tourism. Circuit queens describe circuit parties as fun and inclusive. Detractors argue inclusion only applies if attendees meet certain appearance criteria, specifically being fit and hot. The festival is not explicitly gay and attempts to counter stereotypes, but the debate continues as summer party season begins.
