Five decades of wildly divergent experience come together in this "fast and furious yet thoughtful history and analysis of...gay sex and love in America" (New York Native). From the liberating discovery of "buddies" in the trenches of World War II to the brutal repression of the '50s, from the heady possibilities that emerge in the wake of the Stonewall uprising to the hedonistic love fests and ecstatic extremes of the baths and sex clubs of the '70s, and finally from the psychical and emotional carnage of the AIDS-plagued '80s to the '90s sex clubs, Douglas Sadownick provides a full-scale psychosocial analysis of the sexual behavior of gay men. Combining personal testimony, thoughtful commentary, and glimpses of social history from archival material, "Sex Between Men" puts the sex back in homosexual.
Review:
"In a time where history seems to disappear after two weeks, it is helpful to have such a review taking us back to an earlier gay liberation....As Sadownick chronicles so well, we have been taught as gay men to fear each other to the degree that many of us cannot contain both love and sex in the same intimate relationship. Perhaps the antidote to this toxic fear is not in the act of sex but in Whitman's 'dear love of comrades.' A history of that love might not make for steamy reading but may bestow upon the reader sweeter dreams and clearer vision."
John Weir
