"Because of the clinical history of the word 'homosexual,'" the site tells us, "it is aggressively used by anti-gay extremists to suggest that gay people are somehow diseased or psychologically/emotionally disordered. ..."[...]these words appeared in Es- quire in 1969.[...]it may be tempting to keep LGBT+ materials in a special collection, but this isn't ideal, as those who ask to see the collection have possibly outed themselves. |
