From Walt Whitman to Boy George, gay culture has profoundly shaped American society. Culture Clash looks at gay male culture in everything from drag shows to the Marlboro man to pornography; from the cults surroundings stars like Mae West and Judy Garland to the avant garde gay theaters that have revolutionized Broadway productions.
