QUEER & GAY BERL: YOUR GUI FOR LGBTQ+ BERL

I had been wrg for the emergg gay prs for some time on a eelance basis durg the late 1970s and 1980s, and ocsnally ntributed to the monthly magaze Him that was published by Millivr.

The tabloids might be sptg feathers about the sudn, unashamed and assertive visibily of homosexuals but the populatn at large was generally a lot more sangue – or maybe was jt different.

All the same, as gay rights ched forward, the tabloids beme creasgly aggrsive their attacks on what they regard as a highly unsirable and praved liftyle. As Parliament stggled wh var elements of law reform – the age of nsent, Sectn 28, civil partnerships and then marriage, adoptn and fosterg, gays the ary, protectn om discrimatn at work and the provisn of goods and serv – I was able to reflect through the Mediawatch lumn where the opposn was g om.

Beg an optimist, I prefer to thk that there has been a real change attus and that while homophobia still bubbl unr the surface for some people, for most is no longer an issue. There were many other issu – same-sex kiss soap operas, outg, gay parentg, the e of gay liv to sre polil pots – all provid strong material for the Mediawatch lumn.
