Amanda Crammon went to Sydney University and when she came out stayed in a nearby 2010 youth refuge. She was active in the University’s queer group and has memories of annual Queer Collaborations and LGBTIQ activism. Amanda and her partner’s interview also includes observations of contemporary lesbian commercial venues and observations of the inner west suburbs. Amanda (Mandy) Millar would visit Newtown at weekends to “get some gayness” and mentions visits to the Icebox, Sirens, Caesars, the Bank Hotel and the Sly Fox Hotel. She and her partner live in Newtown and talk about why Marrickville, Newtown and Camperdown are suburbs of choice for lesbians.
