This chapter focuses on the homintern, an example of an “outsider” presence within the Left. The expression “homintern” refers to the milieu of gay men that were at one time pro-Communist. The term was also intended to suggest a humorous parallel between international networks of homosexuals and of Communists.

Keywords:   homintern, gay men, pro-Communist, homosexuals, Communists
