San Francisco, New York, Washington DC, and New Orleans are four of the biggest gay party meccas in America, yet the cities' lesbian bars keep shutting down. Why are lesbian bars dying while gay male clubs continue to thrive? Is it because of rising rent prices, the stereotype of lesbians moving in after the first date, the rise of the trans rights movement, or something more complex? Broadly host JD Samson travels across America to find the answer.

I think you have a space between the brackets and parentheses, because I still see the markdown used to make the link and the URL instead of seeing Moby Dyke by Krista Burton as an actual clickable link.

Thank you! I didn't realize there couldn't be a space there. The markdown guide (as seen on my phone) looked like there should be a space.

Edit: Sorry for multiple replies, wefwef kept telling me the reply failed.

Link works! I really don’t mean this to come off condescending, just saying it because you appreciated my past Markdown fix—there’s an extra space between “Burton” and the period.

You’re allowed to put things right up against the Markdown, you don’t need to have spaces before and after it. Though as you’ve seen, you can put spaces before and after. Just keep in mind the spaces will display.

Thank you for the info! I'm going to leave the space because I'm too lazy to edit it again, but I appreciate the response. 😄
