"0."_0en Gate held its f'U'St meeting and has ,been 'operating on its own
since.
.Interpretations of the reasqns underlying the split in ACf Ul'/SF vary
widely ..Some local activists said thatthey feel that the group had grown too
big and unwieldy, after the publicity
g~erated by the sensatioruilprotests at
the Sixth
Intem'ational AIDS Conference,,
held here last June, drew in hundreds of
new members. With so many people,'
some say, the group had simply become
immobilized by differing ideologies on
how best to fight the disease.
And in an organization
whose
meetings are known for their raucous,
emotionally charged and sometimes
angry atmosphere,some members
seemed unable to focus their fury at
the outside world and became increasingly wrapped up in internal strife. According to sources, controversy over a
proposed office space, varying agendas about what is most important in
the fight against AlPS, as well as perceived racism and sexism among men
in the group by women members, also
played a part in the split.
Others believe that while the gay
male community organized quickly toslow the spread of the disease amongst
its own, it is unwilling to tackle broader social agendas involved in fighting
AIDS in other affected
communities_,
Still others said that ACT UP, now a
few years old, has come down from its
initial •organizational high and should
begin to look inward.
But- Randi Derson, a meinberof
the ACf UP Women's Caucus, said thatwhile ACf UP is willing to take on the

,

world's problems, "it wouldn't deal
with its own shtt." Others feel that
ACT UP split, in part, between those
who choose to work within the systemfor change and those whp want to"take it to the streets."The controversies raging in ACT 'UP/SF have consummated tensions
that have also plagued other important
chapters 6f the nationwide movement,
including Seattle and Chicago. In New .
York
City, home of the country's,
largest ACT UP chapter, the creation ofQueer Nat!~n, a loosely stru~red direct-action group focused on gay andlesbian liberation, seemed, to function ..
as an escape valve for mounting tensions earlier this year, allowing thegroup to avert c;J.iscussionsof.a Wlit.
-Gerard Koskovic~, a B~yArea gayhistorian, told Outweek that tho:e is ahistory of similar splits in gay rights or-'ganizations going back to tµe early'50s, when the Mattachine Eoundation
spun off the Mattachine Society in
1953. Since then, he said, gay and lesbian organizations hitve ofteri split between "structural revolutionaries" and"gradual reformists" within organizations that house people with the same
ultimate goals but different views on.
how to carry them out.
, Indeed, Bill S~n~g,a founding member of ACf UP/Golden Gate,called the schism "inevitable." He said
that, in his mind, ACf UP had lost its
focus, and that he per5Qnally P90ritizes
fmding a cure over issues of "morality"and getting care for those With the disease "at all costs" as his number-one issue. WhUe he said that he agrees with .
the idea that one cannot address AIDS
without also examining issues like
racism and sexism, he feels that the accusations , of certain women against.men in ACf UP were not cases of "outand-out sexism." In fact, Struzenberg
feels that in certain cases women havehid "behind charges o( sexis~·within
the group to mask other goings on.
Believing that ACf UP had lost its
focus on AIDS as its top priority, 'and, that the consensus process was leaving
the group paralyzed, Struzenberg said
that, Golden Gate will be operatingwith II. two-thirds· majority vqting system and will be geared less to the"isOl$" and more to treatment issues.
"I'd rather be tainted and alive than p0litically COlTectand dead," he declared.

Mulligan has no plans to continue
the six-month legal battle with Pullen
over the vote count because shedoesn't, have enough money, she said.
Gay rights advocates responded
to the court ruling with sa~ess, ACf
UP spokesperson Tim Miller called
the decision "a big defeat for us all."Pullen has authored numerous
AIDS bills opposed by activists andpublic health officials,"This is a setback for her district
and for pro-choice and gay and les-,bian activists," said Joanne Trappani,co-chair of the Illinois Gay and Lesbian Task Force. "Obviously, we're
disappointed. "Terry Cosgrove, director of the
pro-choice political action committee
Personal PAC, called the. court ruling"Dark Friday." Cosgrove's campaigningis believed to have given Mulligan theadded push she needed to nearly defeat Pullen.
At press time, the day of the ruling, a Pullen spokesperson said that
Pullen could not come to the telephone because "we've got a jam-packed
place here."'.-Rex Woclmer

GAYRIGHTSE
IN FORT LAUDERDFLORIDAfORT LAUDERDALE,Fla.-Votersin BrQward County on Sept. 4 defeatedby 59 percent to 41 percent a referendum to add '"sexual orientation" to the
local human rights ordinance.
But 71,000 people did vote infavor of gay rights, and activist Brad
Buchman of United Citizens for Human
Rights said that he was "thrilled.".
The measure was aggres$ively,fought by the Christian Coalition andCatholic Archbishop Edwafd McCarthy,
who called it "morally unacceptable."'Activists believe that the gay com-munity was also :partially responSible
for the loss, because many apparently
didn't vote.
Only one US city, Boulder, Colo.,has enacted a gay rights law through a
popular vote, Two states and 67 cities. have had gay rights laws ~egislated byelected officials.

find miself.questioning the world aroundme, -.'morethan ever before. At least 15.~ lfriends~and ~cquaintances have died of
AIDS sihce Iast year's convention; a number of filiends
have started
drinking~,.
again; and I'm 110texcitedaoout the factthat mtfl!ght has been, delayed 'more,than an, holf' and, a half. To top it all off:
rm tired; I have a\ headache; I'm unfathotnai>ly hOfllY;and, I'd really like a damn

Betteri 'yet, lei's ju.st have a
Scotch or 'Jive. Wait a minute. Erase•that thoug~t. Go for the coffeestraight up.'.
, Obviously; I'm avJiding something.
"Easy'does it," 'says som,e distant voiCe
from 4eep within. "It's labor Day weekend. Just relax." I take a deep sigh..
Finally arriving in the" city by, thebay,;1 head directly to the Conve!ltion. Center; where I learn that oVef250 work.. shops, seminars, art eXhibits, fames, AIArlon and AA lneetings are available for- myeyebrow-raisirig perusal.

Each year, the Living Sober Convention in San Francisco (aniong others)
allows thousands of gaYs and lesbians
the opportunity to celebrate their rebirth
into a sober life in a safe and nurturing,atmosphere of I~ving sister- and brother-.
hood. Living Sober was the firSt gay- andlesbian-<>iiented
conventionof AA arid,.
AI-Anon,. an~ I, like many, liken theexperience to a homecoming to spiritualroots-an .amalgam of gratitude and welcome rediscovery of myself and theworld around me.
The annual IiVing Sober convention
always ends up being radically different
from what I have projected
A lot of my.".
friends come to Living Sober or otherconventions with the intehtion of working on a particular challenge in their
liveS; only to find other issues rising to
the surface. Many once-taboo subjects
are now being discussed openly at conventions like these,
and they're spawning,
more in-depth studies at the. many othergay and lesbian roundups around thecountry.
,".
A brief look at the Living Sober agenda sheds light on jus: what kind of things I
could work pn, this year: "AIDS/ARCIHIV
and Experimental Treatments in Sobriety";''Issues of BiSexuality iri'Recovexy"; "Atheism and Agnostics"; "Self-Mutilation";"theUnspeakable CQmpulsion"; "Homophobia: the Conflict Within"; "Lesbians of Colorin AA"; and my favorite, "Leather Safer Sex:and Sobriety."
The next day, I enter a softly lit,
peach-coloroo conference room, where agroup of young gay men dressed in fullleather are sitting cahrily on the carpeted
floor. They're discussing how sobriety

for women on ~erfloor)., ..
From my vantage' point, l- honestly,feel as if nobody is judging anyone. Eachis given the .opportunity to ~alx?uthis experience. One sat cryirig in thearms of a friend. Another shared about
someone who had died of AIDS. Others
talked about their realization in sobriety, that the experience of "strong pleasurable
sensation" was worth exploring sexually
now more tba'n ever.
.. . I ce1tainly relate to what is
being,
said. Like others, I thought during mydrinking dayS that leather sex 'Ya5..sickbehavior and, something to be ashamed .
of. I know now 'that it's ~ only acceptable, avant-garde sexual experience andexpression but al&) the ~met1iag ofmutually
needs. 1bat rDeetingin particular gave me the much~ed
reminder that I don't have to be :given
pem1ission to have. my feelin~,.sexu:µ orotherwise. It wasn't the first time I was
reminded that intimacy is a voluntary act.
Next, I -strolled into what. I thoughtworkshopwould be a ligh~and ~gcalled "Success in Sobriety." Some weretalking about material and career successafter their new-found sobriety. I shared ,.
what I felt to be an inaedible transfonnation d eax>tional energy and attitude as I
move forw.ud in my sober life. But I also
realized that I still let cet1ain ghosts fiom
my past color my thipking: AlcoQolic
imaginin~of being forced to live without
running water or' being fired when mybo5s figures out that I am a phony. I stillfight fear-most of it, false fear.
.
Others mentioned that just living a
day at a time withoqt a drink was anamazing success for all of us. I agreed.
At the end of the hall, in a quiet
gallery, were displayed. the artistic
achievements of sober lesbian and gay
artists. Visitors were walking tensely past
the pictures on the walls and the sculptures' on their pedestals. Some people
were teary'-eyed, and others were smiliDg
and taking long sighs. The art told a variety d our stories about life--and some,about death. All of it was about sobriety or the lack of it. It was at thatmoment, only one day into the weekend,that I began to grieve for something I
can't quite put my finger on I wondered. if I was capable of painting a picture or
writing a book.

there are strong. countelVailing reasons
against filing such a lawsuit.
FIfSt, an appropriate test case would
use up resources that could be spent on
litigating more promising cases on otherissues. Lesbian and gay 'Americans havenot seen fit to favor their legal organiza-.
tions.. with enough money toemploy,more than a handful of full-time attorneys, who are fully occupied on numerous battle fronts,
Second, a. new gay marriage casecould produce ,a dis,astrous judicial opinion which would have negative effects in .
a variety of other contexts, including litigation over childcustody and • visitation,•
adoption and foster care. While it, is hardto predict what a court might say'in tuming down such a challenge, it is unlikelythat it would be h~lpful in other. cases. 'Finally, and perhaps mQst importantly for purposes of getting organizations like the ACLU involved, there isconsiderabl~ opposition within the gay, legal movement to pushing for gay mar. nage, an opposition that comes not from.
,a concernabbut
resources but rather
from a basic dislike of the institution of
marriage itself and a feeling that gay
people sbould create our 'own arrangeQ'lents to suit the ways we live our lives,
The marriage. institution boils down to aparticular package of rights and responsibilities that has evolved over centuries
to accommodate the heterosexUal nuclear
family. It continues to embody the characteristic arrangements, of a patriarchal
society and is antithetical to many sigr1ificant aspects of feminist thought and ofgay .liberation.,
At meetings of attorneys from theleading gay rights groups, the majority
sentiment for several years has been tolobby for domestic' partnership ~statutes
and to discourage ill~fatedlitigation challenges to marriage laws.. r•
Is this feeling out of touch with thedesires of the gay community? At themost recent lawyers meeting, the opinion waS voiced that there is no eagerness in th~ gay community to'sue for theright to marry. Although plenty of pro- pIe call to inquire about gay, marriage,
when ,told it is unavailable, they don't
volunteer to start a lawsuit. ·Of course,
any individual who can afford to fundthe litigation and fmd a lawyer willjng to~e it on can file a lawsuit on the subject, but it seems unlikely that our legalorganizations will be initiating such acase at any time soon,.

Continued

I spent the rest of the weekend
meeting up with old friends, having
lunches and running in and out of
meetings. Sometimes I was very atten- ,tive, .but a lot of the time I just day<!reamed and tried to let go of my endless, chatty-Cathy brainstorms about
what to do' with the rest of my life. A
couple of times, I broke down and• decidedthat avoiding
being human, a£.
former alcoholic preoccupatioq, wasjust ;qot going to be possible., I'm often
still confused about just what is
expected of .me.
, ,I may not always know what I think,'f"'::'.
how':! feel or.how to act. But one thingh,as OOcomeincreasingly clear since the
day after the' night ~ took my last drink,after!~ ,long-years,of drinki:n~e
day I"f~~e up completely nude in a dark'(~bathhouse, face down in a pool of~oWri vomit I have learned that all thebaZ}r·tpingS '.in.life,that .sometimes·elude

K: Our music is definitely not disCo.

Disco was great, but the "disco
sucks" campaign was a reaction to•
the Bee Gee's takeover of the 'sound .

Can we talk about Greg Brady?
A,bout how he changed my ,life
irrevocably with a single pair of pants?
It was a lovely Ohio spring evening in
1973. We'd had a dinner of Salisbury
steak, com on the cob and salad with toomuch vinegar, the'way Dad liked'it. We sataround the lV watching The Brady Bunch.
My brother, sister and I giggled at a few
moments, but for the most part therecorded iaughter kept us silent, observing
this strange California family with a livingroom the size of an airport lobby. .
I stared at Greg, who had just
exploded into a fuzzy muscularity thatseason. His brown halo of curls accented
with sideburns gave him the look of agroovy Jesus Christ Superstar chorus
member. His bell bottoms, a vibrant

pattern of post-60's vertical stripes, were
unusually tight. I sat close, straining to
make out the. placement of his cock andballs in those aJluring jeans as he entered,exited, sat on his bed and cajoled his
younger brothers, who had not yet
sprouted into f,ullfuzzy young ma.nhood.
"Mom?" I called out.
. "Yes, Jimmy?" Mother, in her
comfy chair, peered down from her
Sidney Sheldon novel.
"Can you get me a pair of pants likethose?" I asked, pointing to Greg Brady's
sexy ample legs'..
"Oh, don't be so queer," my brothermoaned.
I lunged at him, spilling his bowl of
popcorn, and punched him in the face.
My sister laughed and screeched. My•

parents screamed as he and I rolled
about on the floor. I wanted to poke mybrother's eyes out. Instead I settled forjust a few punches, until he punched me.
Screaming and crying, we weresent to our room, where we continued
fighting. Being the baby of the family,
I got to be exiled to my parent's
bedroom. I calmed down, took in thesmells of my mother ansi father's
scents, their clothes, perfumes. I
hated my brother for knowing so
obviously what I was. I talked to myparents. 'That weekend I came ,out to myparents. I also got a pair of pants,
the loudest,tightest
vertically
striped bell bottoms they had at the,mall. T

T\1~iiJK and rurning in the revolving cock- .,· tail lounge of the Maniott Marquis Hotel, where• ,Johann,. the pianist, was hammering out his
unique idea of "But the World Goes 'Round" inthree.:quarter
time, I thought for . a moment that. ,I'd been visited by an insight. On . closeinspection, however, it proved, as these things so." often will, only to be a whimsy, and that being
the case, as it so ·often is, I dismissed it and" resumed my desultory rotations: Not that I· could really stand one more insight this week.
: The others have already Qrought me to this,,.near-paralyzed state..

.
. You see, I'd been pacing around my office· earlier i:i."iO the day, trying to get through to Ah:inand Eir~ to confrrm Thursday's dinner plans,
while at the same time trying to reason out asolution to this.Annual Summer Fudge Competition sometime
before Halloween, when I suddenly realized, with a blinding
clarity suffitient to penetrate any number of milligrams, that
there is no'such thing as the correct summer fudge; that
fudge summer, winter or otherwise is as purely subjective
as just about everything else, and to advocate one fudge over" .-:mother, no matter how well-reasoned- .the process of selec.

immediately'recognized,with everything falling into place

S~lomon surelf experienced o~ at lea:St on) or tWo occaSIons, .when my moral foundatIon was rocked by the next
revelation,' to wit: If the Annual 'Summer Fudge Competition
was a meaningless pursuit, then so was the effort I'd expended'at its service, a service I'd believed, only moments hitherto, was of utmost value to the community.
. I wrote these thipgs down in a slightly expanded version(i.e" with footnotes and appendices) and sent them through. the pneumatic tube to, my editor. Then I put out the light andwent' for a l?ng walk, ,attempting to rediscover the meaning'Jul service, the worthwhile pursuit, the next order of busi'. ness, if you will. My walk, of course, led me back to the" cocktail l<?unge,which always moves but never proceeds.
After playing "I Can't Do It Alone," Johann took a :Oreakand sat down at my table. I explained, without footnotes or. appendices, what' had happened with the Annual Summer
Fudge· Competition and how I felt upon learning that I had
wasted my time in an age (and at an age) where time is pr,iceless. Johann helped himself to several of my cigarettes "for

about the neurotic plight of "FourJews in a Room Bitching." . 'What followed was just as unortho'

Whizzer only to lose Whizzer and' towatch his psychiatrist, Mendel, movein on his abandoned family. Mr. Finn
and his collaborator, .the director
James Lapine, told this story in 70
minutes of songs that were melodiou~and .touching.

Their lips move to no sound but they draw no closer
to the fence. It is our good fortune
to look not quite harmless.

Across the East River the Domino Sugar sign,a movie~set piece, glints in the sun off the water.
Dead End Kids glare, no longer channing.
Your arm is tight around my waist, your handdigs tensely into my pocket holding even my underwear
