Combining historical method, symbolic interaction, and the concerns of John Dewey's pragmatism, the book explains why gay men created the meanings they did and challenges the prevailing view that the 1960s was merely the transformation of an assimilationist gay politic into a radical one. 606 $aGay community$zCalifornia$zSan Francisco$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aGay culture$zCalifornia$zSan Francisco$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aGay men$zCalifornia$zSan Francisco$xSocial conditions$y20th century 606 $aGay men$zCalifornia$zSan Francisco$xSocial life and customs$y20th century 606 $aGay community$2homoit$3https://homosaurus.org/v4/homoit0000485 606 $aGay identity$2homoit$3https://homosaurus.org/v4/homoit0000496 607 $aSan Francisco (Calif.)$xSocial life and customs$y20th century 615 0$aGay community$xHistory 615 0$aGay culture$xHistory 615 0$aGay men$xSocial conditions 615 0$aGay men$xSocial life and customs 615 7$aGay community. 615 7$aGay identity. 676 $a306.766209046 700 $aOrmsbee$b J.
