1970s: The personal became the political. The Gay Liberation Front made demands. In 1974 David Hutter and I wrote and published:
With Downcast Gays ASPECTS OF HOMOSEXUAL SELF-OPPRESSION | |||
| Two other young men in that 1975 photo are dead. | . | |||
| . | The 1980s brought HIV and money-mania, but ended with new hope and determination... | |||

2000: SURVIVOR Amidst image-obsessed superficiality, fraud spin and hype, fashion-driven consumption, super-rich and written-off poor. But seeing a great change in political and public attitudes to sexuality, after three decades of brave truth-telling work by open lesbians and gay men. The principle of homosexual equality gradually accepted in law and government. The Internet allowing self-expression as never before. |

| 2002: Total Information Awareness: no illusion of privacy. The political and the personal are still inseparable. | |||
 | So enjoy it while you can! |
