Homosocialy was re to muny wboy culture, allowg men to nnect wh others whout societal retributn (Packard 3, 7).

The term “sexual vert” was veloped to refer to the people and was ed terchangeably wh “homosexual” (Boag 5).

Concurrently, the ncept of “sexual versn/homosexualy” evolved direct ntrast to “heterosexualy. ” From the start, homosexualy was fed as nately “unnatural, ” and therefore sexually viant.

TEEN GAY ROO COWBOY IGNOR DEATH THREATS, SAYS 'I’LL NEVER BE SILENCED’

Moreover, the e of “sexual vert, ” homosexualy beme herently lked to effemacy. As Peter Boag explas, “to intify a homoerotic re s myth about the supremacy of whe Amerin masculy is to imply that Amerin dienc want their ontiersman to practice nonnormative sir as part of their rol natn-buildg” (12).

In other words, if there is somethg natnal about the wboy and if there is somethg homoerotic about the partnerships he forms the wilrns, then there is somethg homoerotic about Amerin natnal inty. This would be somethg seemgly ntradictory to the rercement of homosexualy as Other and anathema to the Amerin/mascule ials the wboy was supposed to reprent.

In forcg the dience to regnize a eper nnectn between the two protagonists, one that may reflect feelgs held by many other Amerin men, the dience is pelled to acknowledge the artificial boundary between homosocial and homoerotic that is imposed by homophobia and rerced by the Hollywood Cowboy.

As Eric Patterson ncurs, “By lotg love between men wh the inographic system of landspe, clothg, and activi that are fundamental to the Wtern, Brokeback Mounta oblig rears and dienc to beg to regnize how the Amerin natnal fantasy of Wtern adventure and particularly the ialized wboy hero have distorted history and endorsed a homophobic nstctn of masculy” (117). The are wterns that foc on gay relatnships, overtly or thematilly. And spe Sam Elltt’s risn of the film (the actor, known largely for starrg wterns, took exceptn to “all the allns to homosexualy throughout the f— movie,” on Marc Maron’s podst this week), ’s a theme that’s been explored before.
