I would equent lol gay bars, and steelworker bars, and get faiar wh the culture. 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.
The whole steel *dtry's* gay. Where you been Homer, the entire steel dtry is gay.
