Wilton Manners- Loud music, cold beers and lots of women may sound like the typical night in Ft. Lauderdale, not if you are at New Moon Bar where the ladies pick their couples, the music and even their own fights.
“This is the most popular lesbian bar in Ft. Lauderdale and everybody knows that,” said Kendra Olivos a 22 year-old film student.
New Moon, located at the heart of Wilton Manners in Ft. Lauderdale, is an upscale but fun-loving spot where anything goes.
The owner, Carol M. encourage costumers to “come as you are,” but she is also quick to stop any over-disturbing behaviors.
This was the case last Friday, on karaoke night, when Kelly, a girl celebrating her birthday, was kicked out for picking a fight with Brandy. Carol, the owner, acted as the security guy and dragged the enraged girl out. Later, the owner acted as an intermediary between the two fighting girls, because the brawl didn’t ended there, it continued into the parking lot.
“The birthday girl is a regular,” said the bartender, “and Carol cares about the costumers.”
The party continued inside, and at the end of the night girls were singing in a happy mood, talking about everything, planning the after party and asking for one more last call in the bar.
“We are no different that everybody else, only when we want too to be.” Said Olivos.
