Gay latin club
LGBTQ+ Bars in Latin America
La Purísima is an unapologetically irreverent gay bar on Avenida República de Cuba in downtown Mexico Urban area. One of its most endearing features is the staff who dress as Catholic priests and nuns.
I was on assignment in Mexico City for the Washington Blade, the oldest LGBTQ+ newspaper in the United States for which I am the international news editor, in July I decided to leave to la Purí, as the bar&#;s known for short. I arrived shortly after 11 a.m. and spent the next 90 minutes or so dancing and slowly sipping shots of mezcal. I was walking outside to earn some fresh air when Sergio, a staff person who was dressed as a priest, approached me in the hallway that led to the door and asked me if I wanted to move to confession. I said yes, and he led me to a miniature booth on the sidewalk. He unlocked the makeshift confessional and we went inside. I had learned in my childhood Confraternity of Christian Doctrine class at St. Thomas Aquinas Church that what one says inside a confessional remains between the penitent, the priest (and God.)

12 PM – Doors Top 10 Queer Latin Club Tracks
1. Te Enterraré el Tacón - Zemmoa
This was Zemmoa’s very first hit, and my very favourite. Over the years her music has been consistently loyal to the synthpop sounds of the eighties, and this footpath is a glorious throwback to the gothic camp of Alaska & Dinarama. Bringing high drama and morbid force play, she repeats: “I’ll bury your heel and take away your heart/and with your heartbeat I’ll start to dance/because the [digital] bit of your affection is another recent song”.
2. Reflect of U - AB Soto
While AB Soto is famous for his unapologetically kitsch and political party anthems enjoy “Latinos in the House” and “Cha Cha Bitch”, this track is beautiful underrated. What I love about this one is how elegant, focused and understated it is. The beat is both simple and heavy, crude but somehow refined. It’s the time of the night when the loud party queens have moved on, and the weird gays are left to vibe. It’s a tune for poor lighting and making out.
3. Ella Sabe - MULA
It’s complex to choose just one MULA footpath to share, si
Miami might not be the queer mecca it once was (R.I.P. Magnum, Mova, Score and so many others). Still, this metropolis is home to a diverse and welcoming queer community, as evidenced by our plethora of Miami drag brunches, the grand Miami Beach Pride and Wynwood Pride festivals and a brand-new wave of inclusive queer parties popping up all around the city. Plus, a quick jaunt up north will get you to Wilton Manors, one of the most highly concentrated gay communities in the U.S. Basically, there’s plenty of action to be had if you know where to uncover it. So, without further adieu: Our roundup of the optimal gay clubs and bars in Miami right now.
Been there, done that? Think again, my friend.
