BT GAY ROMANCE WH A CRIMAL OR SECRET ORGANIZATN THEME

In his new book Homtern: How Gay Culture Liberated the Morn World, English amic Gregory Woods chronicl the rise of the “homtern, ” explorg how the longstandg fear of homosexual men spurred a century-long paranoia about an alleged gay mafia ntrollg areas of ernment, the arts and amia.

In the mid-19th century the pair rrpond about the threat of “perasts”—an antiquated term referrg to men who had sex wh younger men, sce “homosexual” did not yet exist as a label—to their goal of tablishg non-sexual raship between other men.

Woods wr that was this obssn to tegorize so-lled “unsaid” male sexual impuls and behavrs that actually enuraged the fear of the homosexual figure larger society. There is some irony to this history, as the term homosexual was first ed 1868 before the word “heterosexual” even existed.

” This sire to study and fe sexual behavr further phed rearchers to “un-closet” the homosexual, all an effort to mystify a sexual inty that had long been ostracized and stigmatized but never really pned down through scientific quiry.

What proved most unnervg to many was that homosexual men were simultaneoly “visible”—apparently surreptly takg over branch of U.

This paranoia pletely took over polil life, lead to a report beg missned 1950 lled “Employment of Homosexuals and Other Sex Perverts Government. ” The report claimed the “filtratn” of homosexuals to Amerin polil life meant that homosexuals would “envabl[y] … attempt to place other homosexuals Government jobs. The backlash agast homosexuals was only pound by the growg visibily of gay men public life, pecially the arts and entertament dtri, which only pound the ia of an unrground nspiracy of a “gay mafia.

” Some of the most proment playwrights of the 1950s were gay men, cludg Tennsee Williams, Arthur Lrents, and Edward Albee. Many crics were wary of the reprentatns of Amerin life offered by the “homosexual men. ” In 1966, one New York Tim cric mentned the wispread perceptn that bee the men were homosexuals their plays “prent[ed] a badly distorted picture of Amerin women, marriage and society.
