When gays had to be closeted, ships were the only places where
homosexual men could not only be out but also camp. And on some
liners to the sun and the New World, queens and butches had a ball.
They sashayed and minced their way across the world's oceans. Never
before has the story been told of the masses. These are the
thousands of queer seafarers, mainly stewards, who sometimes even
outnumbered the straight men in the catering departments of ships
that were household names and the pride of the British fleet. Hello
Sailor! uniquely shows what it was like to be queer at sea at a
time when land meant straightness.
