Do challenge the myths of gay assiatn and gay ordars? Gay men who play by the l of straight society and nventnal masculy, and who don’t aspire to belong to any other way of life, are more acceptable, to themselv and to others. The last obstacle to plete social tegratn is no longer gay sex or gay inty, but gay yet gay culture is not jt a superficial affectatn.
It has to stand out, or stand apart om the world as is given, orr to qualify as unrstand gay male culture as fed by style is to alter our sense of s meang. That is pecially eful when to all those gay male styl that reveal some nnectn wh femy.

Rather, is a thg self, whose meang is right there on s surface but remas difficult to we figure out how to specify that meang, we will never unrstand gay male culture. We will never unrstand why still surviv, or why so many people, straight and gay, are so overeager to clare s ath.
