This book explores the concept of homonormativity and examines how
the politics of homonormativity has shaped the lives and practices
of gay men living primarily in the UK. The book adopts a case study
approach in order to examine how homonormativity is shaping
relationships within gay male culture, and between this culture and
mainstream society. The book features chapters on same-sex
marriage, HIV treatment, dating and hook-up culture, sexualized
drug use and the world of work. Throughout these chapters, the book
develops a conversation regarding the role that neoliberalism has
played in defining gay male identities and practices in the UK and
USA. If homonormativity is understood as the sexual politics of
neoliberalism, this book considers to what extent those sexual
politics pervade gay men's sense of self, their relationships with
each other, their experience of the spaces they occupy in everyday
life, and the identities they inhabit in the workplace.blematizing
the concept of homonormativity.
