Text: [Creating and maintaining a public culture of queer sexuality is a political act in any decade. Public displays of sexuality--whether sex clubs, pornography, activist demonstrations, or other forms--challenge the enforcement of gay invisibility in public spheres. They also build communal spaces where sexual behavior, identity, techniques, and etiquette can be shared and refined. Most importantly, they help queer people envision a sexual world outside the restrictive boundaries of homophobia, puritanism, violence, and disease. Public sexual culture not only makes queer reality visible, it makes a more fantastic queer world thinkable.]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:iyfco36opjofallgh4axztsd/bafkreia54a2yxdccygran64xwwhqlrthsw24rhdwusdv4wmgmxggftyski@jpeg)
