"The first of two groundbreaking volumes on gay history in Wisconsin. We've Been Here All Along provides an illuminating and nuanced picture of Wisconsin's gay history from the reporting on the Oscar Wilde trials of 1895 to the landmark Stonewall Riots of 1969. Throughout these decades, gay Wisconsinites developed identities, created support networks, and found ways to thrive in their communities despite various forms of suppression--from the anti-vice crusades of the early twentieth century to the post-war labeling of homosexuality as an illness to the Lavender Scare of the 1950s. In We've Been Here All Along, R. Richard Wagner draws on historical research and materials from his own extensive archive to uncover previously hidden stories of gay Wisconsinites. This book honors their legacy and confirms that they have been foundational to the development and evolution of the state since its earliest days"-- "Much of gay history as recorded and written appears to happen only on the coasts. Without denying the significance of developments in major cities on the coasts, there remains a largely untold story of gay history in the upper Midwest. And the Wisconsin gay community's roots extend back to the pre-Stonewall era. Positive identity affirmation and the establishing of social networks during that time would lead to astounding accomplishments in both state and national gay rights after Stonewall. In 1982 the state would pass the nation's first gay rights bill, the result of decades of activism, nonpartisan political efforts, and the support of the church. This first volume in a two-book history tells the stories of those pre-Stonewall efforts"--

Svaka historija homoseksualnosti bi trebala početi suočavanjem dvije povezane, ali razdvojene problematike vezane za seksualnost. Na prvom mjestu se nalazi odnos “prirode nasuprot vaspitanja”. Naime, da li je preferiranje suprotnog spola, ili istog, rezultat genetske predispozicije ili je u pitanju vaspitanje? Bilo bi primamljivo, i suviše lako, odgovoriti kako je u pitanju vjerovatno kombinacija ovo dvoje te naprosto krenuti dalje. Kakogod, ovo je previše pojednostavljeno te ignoriše pravo pitanje postavljeno (i pretpostavljeno) ovom raspravom. Iako bi se moglo raspravljati o tome da je “priroda” (tj. genetika), primarni faktor pri određenju seksualne orijentacije, to ne znači da će se pojedinac ponašati u skladu sa “genetskom predispozicijom”. To znači da bi osoba mogla biti genetski sklona privlačneju istog spola, ali da ona tu žudnju sublimira, stupa u brak, ima djecu i nikada ne ostvari istospolni odnos. U ovakvim uslovima vlastita kultura, religija, zakoni i vrijednosti mogu dovesti do kratkog spoja u predispozicijama.

Through an astonishing series of interviews, Gay Men's Style will take you on a dizzying journey through shops, bars, clubs, gyms, workplaces and global city streets. Based on the lived experience of gay men of all ages from the UK, USA, Europe, Australia and Japan, Shaun Cole calls for a more nuanced understanding of gay male dress and style. Gay male identities in the 21st century are increasingly intersectional, fluid and flexible, from hyper-masculinity and muscularity seen in clubs and on the pages of gay magazines to self-knowing drag culture and androgynous gender play in the fashion industry. Gay Men's Style explores these multiple identities and the ways in which gay men self-identify and present themselves to the world through dress. This analysis is set alongside seismic shifts in technology, global communication and gay rights to redress and readdress the subject of gay men's style in a time of social and sexual upheaval.
