First published in 1989, Coming on Strong addresses itself to anyone, whatever their sexuality, who wants to know why gay men have become one of those most controversial minorities in 1980s Britain. What are the issues and what is to be done? This thoughtful and stimulating book looks at the relationship of gay men to law, politics and masculinity; at the specific position of Asian gays and young people; and at the threat to civil liberties posed by the homosexual law reform. Alongside analysis of the modern gay scene, there are accounts from the inside of various areas of gay work and politics. This book will be of interest to students of history, sociology, queer studies and cultural studies.
Edited by Simon Shepherd and Mick Wallis.
