<p><strong>In a fascinating and radical critique of identity and class, <em>Your Place or Mine?</em> examines the modern invention of homosexuality</strong><strong> as a social construct that emerged in the 19th century.</strong> Examining “fairies” in Victorian England, transmen in early 20th century Manhattan, sexual politics in Soviet Russia as well as Stonewall’s attempt to combine gay self-defence with revolutionary critique, Dauvé turns his keen eye on contemporary political correctness in the United States, and the rise of reactionary discourse.</p><p>The utopian vision of <em>Your Place or Mine?</em> is vital to a just society: the invention of a world where one can be <em>human</em> without having to be classified by sexual practices or gender expressions. Where one need not find shelter in definition or assimilation. A refreshing reminder that we are not all the same, nor do we need to be.</p>
