Durg that time, as most people are aware, thoands of gay men and transwomen died (as did many straight and bisexual men and women). Gay men themselv rallied to each other’s sis as did many straight alli, providg pannship, meals, and some measure of nursg re to many people wh a central, and largely unacknowledged, factor the re of men wh AIDS were anized and more loosely nfigured works of lbians.
