STEEL CLOSETS: VOIC OF GAY, LBIAN, AND TRANSGENR STEELWORKERS
* gay steel industry *
My goal for Steel Closets was to document what life and work meant to one group of the workers, as they experienced the gay rights movement and rapid dtrializatn simultaneoly. Though I vised several archiv, cludg Rivers of Steel Homtead, PA, none mentned gay steelworkers at all. I would equent lol gay bars, and steelworker bars, and get faiar wh the culture.
ARE GAY STEEL LS REALLY A THG AMERI?
At W. W. Gay, we're more than a mechanil ntractor. We're proud to be a one-stop-shop where you'll fd there is not much we nnot do! * gay steel industry *
I talked to many gay-intified men who had equent sex wh them, but I uldn’t fd a way to talk to straight men who did. And I had received ias about what gay and lbian people were, and how we acted. I me to unrstand that if scholars look for what we thk of as gay people, we’ll miss many of the queer pleasur and possibili that exist.
Also, I imaged that blue-llar workers would be racist and homophobic.
It’s about where the Zegeist is at not some gay numbers. Gay steel man is dumb, but so are you guys. I'm not like that one gay om TikTok or whatever.
