Through intensive interviews and historical research, this book reveals the inadequacy of a unified "gay" identity in studying the lives of queer college men. Instead, as Patrick Dilley shows, seven distinct types of identities are discernible in the lives of non-heterosexual college males between World War II and the close of the millennium. Dilley traces the development of these identities, illuminating the historical and contextual factors that affect their formation. By situating these types of "non-heterosexuality" as variable and fluid, Dilley offers a new perspective on queer collegiate life.
