Beyond Shame: Reclaiming the Abandoned History of Radical Gay Sexuality
ISBN: 9780807079577 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The radical sexuality of gay American men in the 1970s is often seen as a shameful period of excess that led to the AIDS crisis. "Beyond Shame" claims that when the gay community divorced itself from this allegedly tainted legacy, the tragic result was an intergenerational disconnect because the original participants were unable to pass on a sense of pride and identity to younger generations. Indeed, one reason for the current rise in HIV, Moore argues, is precisely due to this destructive occurrence, which increased the willingness of younger gay men to engage in unsafe sex.

Rising above the details of her own case, Schulman boldly uses her...
