I realised I was gay – although we lled ourselv “queer” then, which is different om “queer” now – and I went to London to universy. I loved my fay and my fay loved me but was a very difficult place to be gay, to be different any way. I mentn my background bee by the time I went to London as a stunt, I already knew that I was gay, although we didn’t e that word then, and I was sexually active the first few years I was London.
GAY FRANCE
There was no sense which my gayns was nied London the late 1960s; was supposed to be swgg London, there was supposed to be a new attu towards sexualy.
There was certaly a greater willgns to discs sexualy after the law was liberalised 1967 ((The Sexual Offenc Act crimalised homosexual acts private between male dividuals. When the Gay Liberatn Front started October 1970 at the London School of Enomics, where I had started workg, was a transformative moment for me. It’s not simply bee I met new people, but bee of the particular elements of what Gay Liberatn Front was at that moment.
It was obvly fluenced by the Gay Liberatn movement the Uned Stat, post-Stonewall, but also had many Brish characteristics. We saw ourselv, for the first time, as an opprsed mory; we saw our inty as somethg we need to affirm, somethg we need to be proud of – “Gay is good” – and we saw ourselv as part of a much larger polil movement, fluenced by femism, black liberatn and civil rights movement.
