Content: "A challenging exposé of the social and political directions of a minority group. "With singular absence of fanfare, the world's homosexuals have been organizing. In Western Europe, Scandinavia and the United States, invert groups are working to abolish legal restrictions on their practices and to achieve full integration of the homosexual into society. The program includes political activity - with bloc voting. This book provides the first objective exposé of the so-called Homophile Movement. "Throughout history there have been cults and secret societies of homosexuals. Today, however, such groups are no longer secret. Invert organizations now operate openly, and they are linked together by membershi in a super-national body known as the International Committee for Sex Equality."

"Once upon a time in America we pretended that sex did not exist. Now we scream its existence to the rooftops, but our bark is worse than our bite and we do not really spend all our time making love as the hypothetical visitor from outer space might suppose. Sex or talk of sex is all around us, but we are still not certain whether it is a good or a bad thing. Puritanism dies hard, and in our efforts to accomplish its demise we are sometimes led to take up extreme positions. How it will all turn out is anybody's guess - and so everybody guesses. After we stopped pretending that sex between males and females did not exist, we continued to pretend that sex deviations - such as homosexuality - did not exist. But that bastion too has now crumbled and 'the homosexual problem' has become a topic for conversation on almost all levels of our society. If we have not made up our minds about how we ought to feel about man-woman or heterosexual sex relations, how much less have we made up our minds about what is the proper position where man-man and woman-woman sex intercourse is concerned." opening paragraphs Secondhand booksellers |
