Sexuality and spirituality are two of the most powerful and
creative forces we experience as human beings. This work examines
how men of Roman Catholic background have come to understand and
integrate their homosexuality into daily life.
Homosexuality is still a topic immersed in myth and mystery. As
well as providing accurate information about intimate aspects of
gay men's lives such as coping with HIV and practicing safer sex, "
Gay Catholics Down Under" seeks to raise awareness about spiritual
issues for gay men. Each story told provides a unique perspective
of what it means to be of Catholic background in Australasia and
attracted to men. Several of those interviewed spoke of having no
role models and of the isolation growing up not knowing of other
gay people. A final chapter reviews the psychosexual implications
of the study, including a model of integration of sexual and
religious identification, and implications for the gay community
and the Church.
