Anybody who's been to a gay bar or gay club in the past 40 years or so knows that the patrons don't always pay strict attention to those MENS ROOM and LADIES ROOM signs. But what if that patron is a member of Congress? Having already made history as the first female Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) quite possibly tops that feat by being, as far as I know, the first member of the legislative branch to have a selfie taken in an LGBTQ+ loo. The impromptu Instagram photo op took place a few days ago at the Capitol Hill hotspot The Little Gay Pub, which opened just this past March and has done very well since. Pelosi has a long record of supporting LGBTQ+ rights and for that reason is featured in a mural on the lavatory's ceiling. The bar's owners say they would like to get Hillary Clinton to make a rest room appearance next. If they succeed, that could be a new Third Way.
