# Homer Simpson In A Lesbian Bar Homer Simpson In A Lesbian Bar is an object-labeling image macro built from a 1994 Simpsons scene in which Homer sits as the only man in the She She Lounge. Since 2013, people have labeled Homer as the outsider or unpopular opinion and the surrounding women as the majority crowd. ## Overview Homer Simpson In A Lesbian Bar is an object-labeling image macro built from a single frame of The Simpsons in which Homer sits alone at the counter of a women-only bar called the She She Lounge[1]. In the shot he is visibly the only male patron, surrounded by female-identifying characters, which makes him a ready-made stand-in for anyone who feels out of place. The frame comes from the 1994 episode "Fear of Flying," where Homer, banned from Moe's, wanders through different bars looking for a new one[2]. As a template, Homer gets labeled with an outsider or unpopular opinion while the women around him stand in for the crowd he does not fit into, which is why the image caught on for opinion-based posts on Tumblr, Facebook, and Imgur[4]. ## How It Spread The meme took off on January 23rd, 2013, when Tumblr user ghoststhatweknew posted a GIF set of the scene that pulled in more than 849,000 notes over the following years[3]. The GIF format let people use the moment for reblog-style reaction commentary rather than as a static caption. Facebook picked it up shortly after. On May 3rd, 2013, the group SimpsonsQuotesThatNobodyGetsAnymore shared a two-panel image macro built from the shot, racking up over 7,000 reactions, 180 comments and 940 shares[5]. That post helped lock in the two-panel object-labeling structure many later edits used. On June 29th, 2015, Imgur user IdontKillKids posted a version with LGBTQ+ pride flags placed over the other characters' heads and the caption "Me on Facebook," reacting to the wave of rainbow profile filters that followed the U.S. Supreme Court's same-sex marriage ruling[6]. That post pulled more than 6,000 points. The template was later reused to comment on the French flag filter trend after the November 2015 Paris attacks[4]. ## How to Use The template typically works as a two-label object-labeling macro. Creators put one label over the row of women in the bar, representing the dominant opinion, trend or in-group, and a second label over Homer, representing the opposing or outsider stance. It is often used to admit an unpopular take, or to react to social-media pile-ons and profile-filter waves like the ones the meme itself was aimed at in 2015[6]. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is Homer Simpson In A Lesbian Bar?
