520 |a "This book charts an evolution in gay identity within American reality television and documentary film. Through focusing on the performative potential of gay men, it examines the emergence of the independent gay citizen as a bold new voice rejecting subjugation within the media"--Provided by publisher. 
520 |a "This book charts an evolution in gay identity within American reality television and documentary film. Examining productions as diverse as An American Family, Tongues United, Silverlake Life, The Real World, Paternal Instinct, Trembling Before G-D, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, and many others, it explores how gay men have contributed to the progression of gay identity in domestic arenas. Woven into the discussion are such issues as AIDS, race, religion, the development of same-sex family forms, and the changing views of gay men as both creative producers and responsible social agents. In entertainment, gay social actors as political agents challenge dominant ideas, and invent new social worlds."--BOOK JACKET.
