This year's Pride season is highlighted by the return of the Dyke March and an increase in women-centric bars, including the new Rikki's sports bar and beloved establishments like Mother, Wild Side West, and Jolene's. The resurgence of such spaces marks a notable contrast from 2014 when many feared the decline of the lesbian bar scene after the closure of The Lexington Club. The article encourages solidarity within the LGBTQ+ community, particularly for lesbians and trans women. Overall, it's a celebratory time for local lesbian culture during Pride.
"Pride season is hard and fast upon us once again, and it is... surprisingly lesbian!"
"This is a long way from 2014, when I broke the news that The Lexington Club was closing, and it seemed the raucous dyke bar scene was vanishing forever."
