By some oversight, this one major piece of soft-core gay cinema had been venerated throughout Midwestern Christendom.
In my Chicagoland hometown, 12 miles away from the ivory tower of social conservatism called Wheaton College , even my public high school principal was an avowed evangelical who viewed public education as a “mission field.” There was no space in this world for “homosexual” kids. This was pro-life-landia, the white utopia of Billy Graham. We were six steps away from getting back school prayer; frequent “moments of silence” during school announcements were laden with Christian meaning.
My high school principal invited “motivational speakers”—white Christian ministers—to hold forth at student assemblies where they bragged about the guilt-free joys of pounding their wives into conceiving. Students were pressured to take virginity pledges so that our future marriages wouldn’t fail because they’d be unsanctified in God’s eyes.
