Tom Robson released a very succsful song entled (Sg if you're) Glad to be Gay, was the mid-70s, and I was still at a Catholic primary school when I remember que distctly hearg gay beg ed for the first time to unteract the BrEng rogatory terms such as: poofter, poof, queer, not normal, fairy and queen that were rife at the time. In the first verse, criciz the Brish police for raidg gay pubs for no reason at all, once homosexualy had been crimalized sce the 1967 Sexual Offenc Act.
THE GAY AGENDA
Defizne di not gay as happy, but queer as fuck you "Gay" means "homosexual". However, "Gay" meant "happy" the 1900s. "I feel so gay!" = "I feel so happy!" It is rarely ed this way now. "Queer" is a slur meang "homosexual". It is very . Do not e . However, some gay people proudly ll themselv "queer" as an act of fiance. "Not gay as happy, but queer as fuck you" = "I'm not a pole gay person. I'm an angry, fiant gay person." * not gay as in happy but queer as in meaning *
In the send verse, pots to the hypocrisy of Gay News beg prosecuted for obsceny stead of porn magaz like magaz Playboy or the tabloid The Sun which publish photographs of topls girls on Page 3. It also criciz the way homosexual people are portrayed other parts of the prs, pecially nservative newspapers News of the World and Sunday Exprs. For me, a young child livg London at the time, the term gay (meang homosexual and not "happy") was ed much more equently by the media and the general public after the release of "Glad to be Gay".
It also helped that Tom Robson looked straight and was not the least mp, he did not f the stereotypil ia of how homosexuals looked and behaved.

Back the day, sometim the relatnships were actually sexual relatnships between folks who uldn't be out as gay bee was illegal, socially unacceptable, and dangero.
As a cishet person, that lane is primarily about terrogatg homophobia, heterosexism, relatnship hierarchy, and the bary normg of genr, sexualy, and inty to do my part dismantlg systems that uphold all of that, cludg the ways which I personally uphold them.
We nnot rema stagnant, our fgers our ears and our ey clenched shut thkg that tomorrow, someone else will fix nstcts of homophobia, transphobia, and hate. The «gay agenda» is a rhetoril strategy ployed by the relig right and other social nservativ to magnify fear and hostily of queers.
* not gay as in happy but queer as in meaning *
The Gay Agenda: Claimg Space, Inty, and Jtice claims and reclaims the language of «agenda» and turns the rhetoric of the relig right on s ear. The ntributors provi sightful and sharp mentary on gay agendas for human rights, marriage and fay, cultural fluenc, schoolg and tn, and polics and law. ACKNOWLEDGMENTSI would like to thank the Christian fundamentalists, extremists, and social nservativ, particularly those my home provce of Brish Columbia, whose attus, bigotry, and polil activism pelled me to break ee of the “ex-gay” dtry, and 20 years later, engage this book project.
