Daniel Craig opens up about going to gay bar, says it was a ‘safe place' for him
Daniel Craig has recently revealed that he likes to go to gay bars to avoid aggressive straight men. He also said that a lot of women visit these bars for the same reason.
Hollywood actor Daniel Craig revealed he prefers visiting gay bars and has grown sick of the ‘aggressive’ men he encounters at hetero bars.
The 53-year-old movie star recently appeared on Bruce Bozzi's SiriusXM podcast to promote his final James Bond movie No Time To Die. During the chat, he revealed that when he was single he would also frequent gay bars.
“I've been going to gay bars for as long as I can remember and one of the reasons because I don't get into fights in gay bars that often,” he said, adding that due to the ‘aggressive d*** swinging in hetero bars,’ he got ‘very sick of (it) as a kid’ and didn't 'wanna end up being in a punch up' since it happened ‘quite a lot.’
“(Gay bars as a result) would just be a good place to go. Everybody was chill. Everybody, you didn't really sort of have to state your sexuality. It was okay and it was a very safe place to be. And I could meet girls there 'cause there were a lot of girls who were there for exactly the same reason I was there. So I was, there was kind of, you know, there was an ulterior motive,” he said with a laugh.
