The Homosexual in America
<\/strong>The first cover story on gay rights in a national magazine<\/p>\n

On Oct. 31, 1969,\u00a0Time<\/em>\u00a0devoted it cover story to \u201cThe Homosexual in America.\u201d According to\u00a0Time<\/em>\u00a0\u201cinverts\u201d are divided into six \u201chomosexual types.\u201d Time reported: \u201cThough they still seem fairly bizarre to most Americans, homosexuals have never been so visible, vocal or closely scrutinized by research. They<\/em> throw public parties, frequent exclusively \u2018gay\u2019 bars (70 in San Francisco alone), and figure sympathetically as the subjects of books, plays and films. Encouraged by the national climate of openness about sex of all kinds and the spirit of protest, male and female inverts have been organizing to claim civil rights for themselves as an aggrieved minority. Their new militancy makes other citizens edgy, and it can be shrill. \u2026 Most straight Americans still regard the invert with a mixture of revulsion and apprehension, to which some authorities have given the special diagnostic name of homosexual panic. A Louis Harris poll released last week reported that 63% of the nation consider homosexuals \u2018harmful to American life,\u2019 and even the most tolerant parents nervously watch their children for real or imagined signs of homosexuality.\u201d<\/p>\n

Time<\/i>\u00a0identified, broadly, six types of homosexuals:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Blatant Homosexual\u201d:<\/b><\/p>\n

This is the eunuch-like caricature of\u201d femininity that most people associate with homosexuality. In the 1960s he may be the catty hairdresser or the lisping, limp-wristed interior decorator. His lesbian counterpart is the \u201cbutch,\u201d the girl who is aggressively masculine to the point of trying to look like a man. Blatants also include \u201cleather boys,\u201d who advertise their sadomasochism by wearing leather jackets and chains, and certain transvestites, or \u201cTvs.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Secret Lifer\u201d:<\/b><\/p>\n

The other 90% of the nation\u2019s committed inverts are hidden from all but their friends, lovers, and occasionally, psychiatrists. Their wrists are rigid, their \u201cs\u2019s\u201d well formed; they prefer subdued clothes and close-cropped hair, and these days may dress more conservatively than flamboyant straights. Many wear wedding rings and have wives, children and employers who never know. \u2026 To lead their double lives these full or part-time homosexuals must \u201cpass\u201d as straight, and most are extremely skilled at camouflage. They can cynically tell \u2014 or at least smile at \u2014 jokes about \u201cqueers\u201d; they fake enjoyment when their boss throws a stag party with nude movies.<\/p>\n
