It is one of the few places where we feel comfortable walking the streets holding hands and don't feel like we first have to look over our shoulders to do that safety check! It also has some fantastic parties, plenty of gay hangouts, lots of events and the most unpronounceable gay village ever! We've summarised it all right here in our detailed gay Amsterdam travel guide. The city is dominated by water, with 165 canals, around 500 bridges, lots of cute narrow cobblestone streets and many many many bicycles! It's so picturesque that the network of canals in the 17th-century historic old town (called the “ Canal Ring“) was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2010.Īmsterdam is also super gay, which is unsurprising given that it is the capital city of one of the most gay friendly countries in the world. Whilst Amsterdam is most famous for its “ coffeeshops” where you can smoke joints legally, it is also culturally rich with world-class museums and has the most distinctive urban landscape. Whether it's for a city break, romantic weekend or a gay party,circle we always know we're going to have a terrific time.

Last month a viral TikTok post sparked a debate about whether gay spaces should be reserved for members of the LGBTQ+ community. “What happened is we were having a nice night and I kind of was talking to you about my life when my life was changing and we got drunk and I was like, ‘Oh, let’s just go to a bar, come on, let’s fucking go out.’” “For me, it was one of those situations and the irony is, you know, we kind of got caught, I suppose, which was kind of weird because we were doing nothing fucking wrong. We’re two fucking grown men,” Craig said. “OK, the last bit is a tad gross, but who amongst us hasn’t taken a straight friend to a gay bar who’s ended up pulling,” wrote the culture magazine the Glue.Ĭraig and the podcast’s host, Bruce Bozzi, who are old friends, also recalled being photographed hugging outside a gay bar in Venice Beach, California, in 2010, which at the time sparked tabloid speculation about Craig’s sexuality. His podcast comments were largely welcomed by the LGBT community on Thursday, though some felt uncomfortable about his attempts to meet women in gay spaces. “The thing is, it just breaks the ice,” Craig said. He recently sent fans into a spin when he told Stephen Colbert that he kissed all of his leading men, after the No Time to Die villain Rami Malek said they had once had a playful smooch after rehearsal. Craig, who made his name starring alongside Jason Isaacs in Angels in America, the Pulitzer prize-winning play examining Aids and homosexuality in the US in the 1980s, has always been comfortable bending the boundaries of his sexuality.
