Psychological and health science research has identified a disparate experience of body image dissatisfaction among gay men (particularly in relation to heterosexual men), and have theorised that this reflects an emphasis placed on physical appearance in gay male settings. However, these studies largely fail to reflect upon the centrality of the body in securing a visible gay identity, or upon discourses of the nature, appearance and expression of gay identity in a historical and social context.

To whom shall the spoils of this war go? The spoils at stake are the diverted wealth of American taxpayers. Between the public-sector unions and the spoils sit our elected politicians with their re-election prospects dependant on directing these spoils to the "right" people.

The sheer expanse heightens that sense of stability, seeming bigger on the inside than out, but that comes with a deepening sense of mystery and antiquity, your visibility dependant on shifting gray beams of light cast through what cracked glass portals survive.
