Based on what you wrote i have a bit of a problem seeing a verifiable meaning of the tag you are contemplating here. If there is some sort of certification system for bars based on objective criteria similar to hotel stars ratings that would be something that can be tagged but a subjective assessment based on perceived tolerance and friendliness or by statistics of the clientele seems problematic. What could make sense in countries with no general anti-discrimination laws w.r.t. gender identity and sexual orientation is lgbtq=no for establishments that specifically don't allow lgbtq people. That would essentially be an access restriction. -- Christoph Hormann http://www.imagico.de/ _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
