Flying Down to Rio 166 Epilogue 182 To the memory - and the memories - of Jack Deveau Introduction The encounters, adventures, escapades-call them what you will - that are a feature of so many homosexual lives, are surely unique in society. Even the most womanizing of heterosexuals can hardly have as varied a menu as his homosexual kin. No brothel, as far as I know, boasts of a 'back room' as some gay bars do, where sex is wholesale and anonymous. Nor is it easy for a man simply to walk along the street and pick up a woman who is not a prostitute but merely looking for instant gratification, as is common among consenting adult homosexuals. The truth is that a large proportion of gay men have a variety of sexual experiences that would boggle the minds of the straight bourgeoisie, and class distinction barely exists. I have known men-one now in his seventies-who have sex two or three times a day with different men every day of their lives. At the other end of the scale, of course, are those gay couples who settle down to marital bliss and have never cheated in twenty-five years. Well, hardly ever. Somewhere in the middle is where I would place myself. And, incidentally, where I would place a few million other homosexuals whose lifestyles have not yet been accurately documented. Famous writers such as Christopher Isherwood, Merle Miller, Tennessee Williams, Beverley Nichols, have all come out of the closet and bared many fascinating facts about their private lives, but either from modesty or from fear of libel have not been as explicit as I for one might have wished. And Truman Capote and Gore Vidal have very 8 The Erotic World of Peter de Rome carefully and cleverly managed to reveal practically nothing at all. My own limited celebrity as a maker of homosexual pornographic films does not prevent me from telling everything, and more or less demands that I do. Only a few names have been changed to maintain privacy. But in choosing to be explicit, the difficulty arises in the choice of words to describe genitalia. I have rejected everything, with few exceptions, in favour of the word 'cock'. It seems to me the most current, the most common, and the word that most evokes maleness. Peter de Rome June 1984
