Mollies were members of an underground queer subculture, mostly workingand lower-middle-class men notorious for their effeminacy and predilection for that “worst of crimes,” sodomy. The waterman understood what the woman was suggesting, and he followed the tip. He stalked the two until they entered a house of office, a lavatory. He spied on them as they whispered together and “talk’d in a very ludicrous manner.” Soon, “he was very well assured, they were Sodomites.” The door could not shut fully with them inside, and through the gap that remained he saw that “they were b——g one another.” In the criminal law, “buggering” had a precise meaning: phallic penetration of the anus. It was a grievous offense, carrying a mandatory capital penalty. But there was no doubt: he “saw them in the very Fact.” The waterman was not satisfied merely with visual inspection. He went to investigate manually but found that the two “were so close that he could not put his Hand between them.” Only “with Difficulty” did he force it in. He grasped the penis and drew it from the other’s anus. (The report renders this action as taking “Hunt’s —— out of the other’s ——.”) In court, the waterman told what he had found. The offending phallus “was wet, and wet his Hand very much.” Some courts and jurists believed that evidence of ejaculation inside the body was necessary to prove this felony.","PeriodicalId":45704,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of Sexuality","volume":"31 1","pages":"137 - 168"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47848462","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition to candy and condoms, the protesters offered a message for the City of New York: Do not give Donald Trump a forty-year tax abatement to develop the Grand Hyatt while thousands of people with HIV/AIDS sleep on the streets. The protesters explained that a previous tax abatement to build the Trump Tower cost the city $6,208,773—money that could have rehabilitated approximately 1,200 city-owned apartments (fig. 1). “Instead,” a flyer explained, “the apartments remain vacant. And sick people [with AIDS] remain on the streets.” At the time, the city offered a mere forty-four beds through an institution called Bailey House for “people who [were] too sick for the shelters but too healthy for a hospital.” The small fortune the city kicked back to Trump, AIDS activists insisted, should be, in their words, going to “housing for people with AIDS, not condos for people with maids.”1 In that year alone, ACT UP and the Partnership for the Homeless estimated, there were more than ten thousand people with HIV/AIDS who were unhoused in New York City.2 Scholarship on the AIDS epidemic routinely focuses on very public grassroots activism—like that in front of the Trump Tower—and often frames it in opposition to the state. The battle for housing rights and care that erupted in 1980s New York City, however, defies these assumptions.

Lex, who is genderqueer, recalls their mother encouraging them to publicly conform to the feminine gender norms that aligned with Lawson’s assigned sex at birth to avoid discrimination from their community when Lex was a teen. Lawson resisted, continuing to wear the clothes that fit their punk aesthetic and their gender identity, eventually moving to Louisville and then to California, which, they note, their mother appreciated because “the grapevine is a lot further” from Louisville or California to Berea, minimizing the amount of information about Lawson that could get back to Berea.1 While Lawson’s story is not an uncommon example of queer teenage rebellion, it demonstrates how they remember negotiating the boundaries of visibility while keeping their sexuality and gender identity private to ensure their personal well-being and to comply with their mother’s desire to fit into their small town. Though everyone—straight or otherwise— must find a balance of privacy and visibility in their lives as Lawson did, that balance has been especially crucial for queer people, whose lives and livelihoods could (and still can) be endangered by unwanted disclosure of private information.

The focus was now on who one is rather than on what one does. For the most part, historians of sexuality have found this distinction between acts and identities to be methodologically useful. They have used it as a yardstick to separate sexuality from other types of sexual organization: where there is sexual identity, there is sexuality. Most famously and influentially, Michel Foucault contrasted the premodern sodomite, who was “nothing more than the juridical subject of ” forbidden acts, with the nineteenth-century homosexual, who “became a personage, a past, a case history, and a childhood, in addition to being a type of life, a life form, and a morphology, with an indiscreet anatomy and possibly a mysterious physiology.”2 Foucault’s passage has often been interpreted as claiming not only that homosexuality is a type of identity but also that, unlike the act of sodomy, it did not exist before the nineteenth century.3","PeriodicalId":45704,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of Sexuality","volume":"30 1","pages":"390 - 410"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45672693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This subject attracted critical attention as early as 1898, when Stewart Dodgson Collingwood dedicated the final two chapters of his eleven-chapter biography to “that beautiful side of [his uncle’s] character which afterwards was to be, next to his fame as an author, the one for which he was best known—his attitude towards children, and the strong attraction they had for him.” Reflecting on this attraction, Collingwood proposed that the “one comprehensive word wide enough to explain this tendency of his nature” would be “Love” and that it is only in light of this love “that we can properly understand him.”2 Throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, literary critics, biographers, and historians of childhood, sexuality, and art have drawn on the tremendous range of primary source materials that constitute Carroll’s archive (including fiction, correspondence, diaries, photography, and sketches) to approach the vexed question of what it might mean to love a child in a period governed by different social and sexual codes from the present. The author’s enduring popularity means that this topic will continue to be studied against the backdrop of changing cultural discourses. Attitudes toward the sexual preferences of prominent men have shifted dramatically in recent years, with many formerly beloved figures scrutinized","PeriodicalId":45704,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of Sexuality","volume":"30 1","pages":"335 - 362"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45805194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
