GUEST,Clint Keller Traditional songs re. homosexuality (70* d) RE: Traditional songs re. homosexuality 26 Mar 05


Perhaps it's in the ear of theā€¦ belistener? I recall a pretty soldier boy in the Post Entertainment section at Fort Riley who was enraptured by Harry Belafonte's 'Danny Boy.'

He was a dancer; liked to enter talent contests in his corset and net stockings. Some of the guys thought was a girl and tried to get a date with him; some knew he wasn't a girl and tried to get a date with him. All this in the Eisenhower '50's in the middle of Kansas and the middle of the First Infantry Division. And long before Rocky Horror. I can hardly believe it myself and I was there.

--Friendly advice to Martin: The most outspoken anti-'queery" I ever knew turned out to be gay himself. Be careful not to protest too much.
