What sex education was available in the 1990s, pre-internet, for me, the gay teenager in Britain? At school, the default education was heterosexual sex but I wanted to know about homosexual sex between men, and not just sex but about homoerotic desire and love. Rooted in making use of what was available to me at the time (pre-Internet times of the early 1990s) and making things ‘queer’. It was about how others reacted to making things ‘queer’, by birthday cards with half-naked men aimed at a female audience.
