Review: “A Strange Breed of Cat”

Description

Review of A Strange Breed of Cat: An Encounter in Human Sexuality by psychologist B. Mark Schoenberg, a book recording the sessions of a male encounter group at Memorial University consisting of seven students: two gay, one bisexual, three heterosexual, and one unsure. The reviewer warns against interpreting the book as reflecting a new "liberated" approach to sexuality.

This article was posted in the Body Politic newsletter. The Body Politic was a queer, activist-based Canadian monthly newsletter that was published from 1971 to 1987. It is one of the most significant queer publications in Canadian history, and played a significant role in amplifying the Gay Liberation Movement and provided a crucial space for queer voices to be heard.
