GOOD AS YOU: FROM PREJUDICE TO PRI – 30 YEARS OF GAY BRA

The term gay has referred to someone who exhibs sexual sire or behavr toward a person or persons of their same sex sce at least the 1930s. However, large part due to reclamatn by Gay Rights activists over the s, gay has sce bee a preferred term to refer to gay men—and preferred over homosexual, a term that wh a lot of paful baggage. Good As You has also been ed as a song tle, cludg by Eternal Summers 2012 and Sundrsed 2015, though the stanc are about heartache, not gay Pri.

Rumors persist that good as you is the orig of g gay for a homosexual man or LGBTQ person more generally, but that’s bog etymology (à la golf g om Gents Only, Ladi Forbidn). Mcular gay pornstar @LivgLargerXXX knows a thg or two about transformatn -- he's been to mcle growth and jectg siline to his dick and balls (which is a fetish) sce 2017. He scrib himself as a domant daddy, keyholr (for gay submissive men to chasty), and fistg top who posts vios on both OnlyFans and JtForFans.

HOW TO KNOW IF YOU ARE GAY

And the chang and evolutn over the last 30 years; om a largely homophobic natn, to one which appears to be more acceptg of people, regardls of their sexual orientatn. Pl Flynn is a journalist who tak the rear on a journey, startg om the late 70's / early 80's and his hometown of Manchter, up until the day he heard gay marriage had been legalised, when Sir Ian McKellan who was preformg Vic ma the announcement to the dience.

AM I GAY?

From creatg mp female characters soap opera Coronatn Street on gay men Tony Warren knew om gay pubs around Manchter, Canal Street and the openg of Mantos and Paradise Factory, the first openly gay pop stars of the 80's, Top of the Pops and Relax and Smalltown Boy, the first gay characters on Eastenrs and Corrie, Pl Gambacci, to Attu magaze and Pl Flynn's first article about the first episo of Queer as Folk, to polics and the first openly gay M. P, realy tv shows (the sectn about Pedro Zamora was particularly movg), gay ins such as Kylie, Madonna, Dava McCall and David Beckham, the g out of prevly closeted Gee Michael, The Pet Shop Boys, how David Bowie falsely claimed to be gay when he had a wife, up to how Will Young and Brian Dowlg were key to when attus really progrsed and moved forwards and the marriage of Elton John and David Furnish. FIFA has a lot to be acuntable for rewardg key petns to untri such as Rsia and Qatar, where even 2017 is still unfathomably illegal to be gay.

I learnt so much om this sightful and fascatg book; about Clse 28, the AIDS and HIV epimic the 80's, the Terrence Higgs Tst and the London Lighthoe - the terview wh Alison was tear jerkg where she talks about how there were men her re, who were dyg alone the Lighthoe bee their relativ had no ia they were gay let alone had AIDS. Pl Flynn clearly has an impecble knowledge and history of gay culture, and his list of high profile sir ntacts help to make this read feel more like stg down over a ffee for a chat.

HOW TO ACCEPT THAT YOU ARE GAY

After watchg, I saw this book and hoped to expand my knowledge of what life was really like for homosexual mal durg this time. What I got was an extremely prehensive look to var pop cultur, polil and social opns surroundg the gay muny om the thor’s early experienc growg up Manchter the 1970s up until the prent day.

I was particularly stck wh Alison’s story, and how she was often the only person who me to vis her var patients bee none of the patient’s fay knew they were gay and had HIV.

It jt seemed to highlight the change that we’ve gone through such a short perd of time terms of gay rights – hopefully for the better, although we still have a long way to chapters on pop culture were noticeably weaker. I wasn’t particularly terted readg about Kylie Mogue’s rise to gay in, or the sudn flux of gay realy TV stars (particularly Big Brother stars). At tim, particularly the first chapter, I found the thor was excsively ghg about the people he was terviewg which wasn’t particularly enarg, and I felt didn’t really add anythg to the together I thought this was a good overview of gay culture om someone who obvly has a great al of knowledge and experience this area.

]This was a really tertg sight to gay culture the UK, om the seventi to nowadays: how shaped self, the hurdl gay people had to go through, how other people’s views gradually book’s chapters follow specific them, such as TV, AIDS, polics, football or pop mic, rather than gog a purely chronologil orr.

I learnt plenty here: how the troductn of explicly gay characters shows like East Enrs or Coronatn Street was perceived, how their actors were perceived at the time, how changed wh more recent seri. Or Clse 28, which I had never heard about until now (not beg om the UK probably didn’t help that regard), and the journey om there to legalisg same-sex Flynn terviewed que a few tertg figur wh the spe of this book, cludg Alison (who worked at the Lighthoe, offerg end of life fort to patients dyg of AIDS), David Furnish (Elton John’s partner), or football player Robbie Rogers—not beg particularly terted football general, I adm I somewhat knew that the latter is still a difficult area when to beg gay, but I wasn’t sure to which anythg, I would’ve liked to see more about the AIDS perd, and somewhat ls about the Kylie Mogue parts, so I gus I’ll have to pick other books for this.
