Sociology
In the nineteenth century, homosexuality was understood as:
a positive identity in which gay people could take pride
an absolute taboo, which meant that all homosexuals were isolated
a subordinate form of masculinity that threatened ‘compulsory heterosexuality’
confirmation of the two-sex model
a subordinate form of masculinity that threatened ‘compulsory heterosexuality’
Attitudes to homosexuality have changed dramatically over time. With the rise of the ‘two sex’ model in the eighteenth century, physical intimacy between two men or women became recognised as a new problem. By the nineteenth century, there was a real stigma attached to homosexual identities, insofar as they posed a threat to the ‘traditional’ role expectations of men. The term ‘homosexual’ came to mean a distinct group of men rather than the activities in which they engaged. 171-173
