Tiger Magazine, the brother publication to DSI’s Butch Magazine, is an important archeological find. Not only is it full of extremely hot guys from 1966, but it contains rare references to the early gay rights movement. Plus, it has some campy attempts at humor, in the tradition of mainstream lifestyle magazines.
On page 41 there is an Op Ed piece about the Dew vs. Halaby case concerning a gay air traffic controller who got fired in 1958 because he “smoked marijuana on five occasions and had engaged in for homosexual acts, some of them for money.” He fought and won back his job and back pay.”The Government is beginning, increasingly, to feel itself placed on the defensive in cases such as this.”
Fast forward 50 years and we’re still fighting against the Government firing military people who are found to be gay! “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” is 17 years old already, and we’re still begging Republicans to go along with a repeal. We need to put those bastards on the defense once and for all!
Okay, I’ve stepped down from my soap box. Now back to the smut. Get a VIP Membership to see more of Tiger. Grrr!
