Fellows, himself a gay man raised on a Wisns dairy farm, knew that many mal like himself, who'd subsequently fled to larger metropolan areas, felt like outsirs among their urban unterparts. Fellows' goal was to give voice to the experienc of ral gay men who were typilly overlooked or ignored by gay urban culture — or else, as he wrote, simultaneoly stereotyped and romanticized as wholome and virile "untry bumpks wh rosy cheeks, ready to be plucked if they venture to the big cy. The oute of Fellows' terviews was his 1996 book Farm Boys: Liv of Gay Men From the Rural Midwt, a pilatn of 36 personal narrativ of gay men, most of whom had abandoned ral livg.

" Though Zak nixed Founta's first ia about gay divorce — "In Illois, we're still celebratg gay marriage! " he says — he was trigued by her other ia of portrayg life ral gay Ameri. WF: As I was dog the terviews, then later shapg them to narrativ for publitns, I was stck over and over aga by what a personally illumatg experience this was: the sights I gaed to beg a gay male, a person om a ral background who was no longer livg and breathg farm life, yet how some of s fluenc had rried over.

Some people thk this is some sort of a dig agast ral life, that thgs mt be really horrible [for ral gay men]. So one of the characters talks about how he and his partner raise pigs, and none of their gay iends n believe that they love their pigs. This is pecially te when pared to cy livg, where folks live close quarters and you’re much more likely to live near a gay or lbian bar.
