Inhalt
In this dictionary of gender and sexuality, Reuter defines words that are sexual, political, playful, hateful and everyday, all brought together under the umbrella of »gayspeak«. He does well to include a brief history of gay culture, from the formation of well-known gay communities in cities like San Francisco, when men and women in the service did not wish to return to their traditional, pre-war gender roles, up to today's »post-gay« era of assimilation and the metrosexual. Reuter writes of the diverse gay community of the 1970s: »Queers were not just queens anymore. Homos were women, too, and fairies danced in a rainbow of colors.« As Reuter calls himself a linguist, his project is akin to Judith Butler's linguistic discussions in queer theory and analyses of in-group construction.
