Gay Jeans Day, which by 1989 was beg observed on mp across Ameri, had begun as Blue Jeans Day and appears to have origated njunctn wh the “Symposium on Gay Liberatn and Edutn” -sponsored by the Rutgers Stunt Homophile League 1974. The League had advertised this and subsequent Blue Jeans Days as an opportuny to clare one’s homosexualy through a clothg choice and statned strategilly-placed “unters” to pretend to be notg who wore jeans and who did not. Wearg jeans on Gay Jeans Day was meant to show one’s support for gay, lbian, and bisexual stunts, and was therefore tend to be clive of straight stunts as well.

In the late 1980s, at the height of the AIDS epimic, gay Amerins were particularly proment subjects of social disurse, often a negative way. The first Gay Jeans Day happened to ci wh AIDS Awarens Day. Though this appears to have been untentnal, anizers of Gay Jeans Day did acknowledge that the epimic had been on their mds as they ma their plans.

THERE IS A GAY JEAN: BETABRAND’S DENIM REVEALS A RABOW WH REPEAT WEARG

In the mid ‘70s, an Amerin homosexual lived a ‘liberated’ natn whout the prence of the current ‘New Right’ and the fear of AIDS. Today, homosexuals feel threatened by a general cultural disda flicted by polil and relig movements and a vastatg epimic.

Many stunts did not want to take the chance they might be seen as gay and rented the perceived mand to take sis, as Myl W. Derieg ’92 wrote a letter to the edor of the Daily Prcetonian: “If I wear jeans, I will be labelled as a homosexual.

If I don’t wear jeans, people will ll me homophobic. There is no middle ground on Gay Jeans Day for someone who is uncid or who ankly don’t re. “The promoters of Gay Jeans Day have exprsed nothg but ntempt for the law of the land.

HOW GAY ARE YOUR PANTS?

The cisn [to wear jeans or not] is siar to the dilemma that gays, lbians and bisexuals face every day. How are they gog to package themselv to appear before peers who often view homosexualy as different, an aberratn?

Szanne Bernat ’91 wrote that homophobic slurs had been hurled at her brother when he vised her on mp earlier that year, and the tensns that arose over wearg jeans had helped to highlight what was like to be nspicuoly different. “I thk that Gay Jeans Day…brought a flavor of this personal vlatn home to many stunts who felt their fens go up…”. Henshon said that more women than men had worn jeans (an observatn echoed by Ken Griggs ’91, head of the Coaln Agast Homophobia), wh about 44% of the people he had seen wearg them, and that the day felt awkward wh everyone lookg at everyone else’s legs.
