However, until publication of this bibliography, there has been no "key" to these holdings. making it difficult for those not conversant with our history to access this material. Firstly, therefore, this paper is intended to provide a tool for extending the material available to students of lesbian and gay history, both specifically in Scotland and more generally in Britain and Ireland. Whilst Lesbian and Gay Studies in Britain is generally considered to be in its infancy, it is to be hoped that some of the best aspects of the burgeoning Lesbian and Gay Studies in America will come to Britain before long. This paper is a modest contribution to that process. Secondly, this work removes one morc excuse for excluding the contribution and history of lesbians and gay men from academic work and research in Scotland. Students of politics, social history, law, sociology, theology, film and media and many other disciplines will find source material in these journals. Thirdly, although the NLS holdings are impressive, there are some significant omissions. I hope that this work will encourage publishers of all lesbian and gay journals to deposit copies with NLS and encourage anyone with copies of particular issues of joumals missing from the holdings to gift them to the library. In particular it would be of great value if NLS could secure further editions of the Scottish lesbian journal Gayzelte (see page 13) and of any of the Scottish journals listed in Appendix Two. Lastly I want people to read and enjoy these journals. Whether you are rediscovering a magazine that stimulates personal memories for you or discovering whole new areas of lesbian and gay publications, you will be rewarded well by the library. However, it should be noted that the NLS does not see itself as a recreational facility and requires readers to state that they are undertaking research. Note: This paper was to have been published by the Politics Department of Edinburgh University in their "Sexual Citizenship" series. i USING THE BIBUOGRAPHY The titles in bold in the contents list are those which I consider to be of particular value either for the scope of their contents or their longevity. The place of publication is given along with the years of publication represented in the NLS holdings. In the main listings. the title of the journal comes at the top of each entry. followed by the NLS shelf mark on the left and the place of publication on the right along with the name of the publishing group where appropriate. HOLDINGS The number of the issue is given first followed by the year(s) represented by the holdings. Where a journal is not numbered, publication dates are used. Some journals were not consistent in their numbering. FORMAT The size of the journal is given both by its dimensions and its number of pages. Please note that the paper sizes are only an indication as a bewildering variety of paper sizes have been used over the years. The frequency of publication follows. CONTENTS I have sought to include in this seclion any material that makes up more than an occasional part of the journal. Again, it should be noted that this can give only an indication of the range ofm3terial. I would welcome feedback in the form of corrections, additions, or constructive comments on this work. BRIAN DEMPSEY Edinburgh, February 1995 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My thanks to Charles Colquhoun, Ian Dunn, Cecil Sinclair, Simon Taylor and Linda Watson-Brown for specific assistance and general encouragement. Thanks also to the long-suffering staff at the National Library of Scotland.

This process of self organisation got under way in Britain in the years following the Wolfenden Report 1 of 1957 which saw widespread public debate of society's attitude towards homosexuals. Gay men, and then lesbians, were to take advantage of the relative openness of debate not only to organise as self declared homosexuals but to publish works reflecting their experiences and demands. Before the early Sixties, homosexuals in Britain had only been able to access the occasional journal from America and most contacts with the scene were made through word of mouth. British publications in the 1950s were limited to soft porn "physique" magazines for men such as Adonis or Manifique, which were closeted and had little or no written content. The situation reflected the total lack of any organisation of what would, at the time, have been called homosexual men or women. In 1958, the year after the Wolfenden Committee made its report, the Homosexual Law Reform Society was formed in London to press for the limited decriminalisation for gay men and in response to the failure of the then Tory government to implement the Wolfenden Report's proposals. Three years later, in 1961 they began to publish Man and Society, the first openly homosexual magazine in Britain. The journal reflected the conservative nature of the organisation with dry academic articles from representatives of the legal, medical and religious professions arguing for better treatment of homosexuals and mainly addressed to straight, liberal society in respectful tones. In 1964, a far livelier journal for homosexual women, Arena Three, was launched in London by the Minorities Research Group. Every month, until the end of the Sixties, Arena Three presented not only articles about the place of homosexual women in society and history but articles from lesbians about their lives and experiences. This first hand and relatively uncloseted approach makes Arena Three a tremendous resource for students of the history of sexual movements and was a more positive statement than that made by Man and Society. When Parliament finally passed most of the recommendations of the Wolfenden Committee report into English law in 1967, lesbian and gay publications were about to expand at an unprecedented rate. Although the 1967 Act did not deal with publications directly, limited decriminalisation removed some of the fears of prosecution for publishers, especially on the issue of printing contact advertisements and listing pubs and clubs frequented 24 by homosexual men and women. The changes in both law and attitude were followed in 1969170 by the phenomenon of Gay Liberation. These forces brought about the birth of a number of more open and attractive lesbian and gay journals which borrowed from the "counter culture" magazines such as IT and Oz. The ability and righl to publish written material is an important one for any group in society. All groups, from the Vatican to the women's liberation movement, have sought access to the written word, and some have actively sought to deny that access to others. As Lenin noted, through publications a group can set about organising itself, reaching out to like minded people and engaging with society to further its ends. The lesbian and gay press has played a part in educating and mobilising people about a whole range of issues from police harassment to sexual health issues. They have provided a forum where people can argue and formulate theories about what it means to be a lesbian or a gay man. Publication allows the group to control how it presents itself, both to itself and to others. Thanks to the reactionary publicist Mary Whitehouse, the best known publication of the lesbian and gay movement has been Gay News. During the years 1972 to 1983 Gay News produced unrivalled coverage of lesbian and gay life in Britain with a mix of news, in-depth articles, scene news and pub and club listings. The prosecution of the paper in 1977 by Whitehouse for blasphemy brought many lesbians and gays together to defend "their" paper supported by many straights. Although Whitehouse won in the courts, the case largely backfired. Gay News was of great importance to many isolated individuals (including this author). It was widely available which meant that people too intimidated to go to, or living too far away from, lesbian and gay venues could begin the process of coming out. One of the most important aspects of the paper was its extensive listings of gay switchboards and befriending organisation and non gay-scene groups as well as hundreds of lesbian and gay pubs and clubs throughout Brilain. During the seventies and eighties journals appeared for young people (e.g. Gay Youth), for isolated lesbians (e.g. Sequel), for trade unionists (e.g. CPSGG Newsletter), for Christians (e.g. LGCM Journal) and other sadomasochists (e.g. SMart). Many journals for gay men included pornography as a major element (e.g. Vulcan) while others published complex theoretical arguments in decidedly un-glossy formats (e.g. Gay Marxist). Some lesbian journals sought to address the issue of the relationship of lesbians to the women's movement (e.g. Red Herring). The National Library also has a small number of bisexual, paedophile and 25 transvestite litles. The question of Ihe validity of connections between the lesbian and gay movement and these sexual minorities continues to be controversial 2 . These conneclions, however, are real and any honest analysis of the lesbian and gay movement will have to address both the content and the censorship of these conneclions. The Scottish journal scene has been dominated by one magazine Gay Scotland, which has been published continuously for 23 years (1971-78 as SMG News)3. Gay Scotland has provided a forum for many contentious issues to be aired, has soughl to inciude women, young people and, more recently, bisexuals in its pages. Other journals published in Scotland include lesbian journals such as Gayzetle and Red Herring and free-sheets of the gay scene Seals Men and Pulse. Each journal addresses its own areas of concern and provides useful material for research. By no means all of the British "nalional" journals have succeeded in carrying Scottish news, the major exception being Gay News. For a number for reasons, tilles aimed at gay men appear to have been more numerous than lesbian titles, and sometimes more long-lived and better produced. Some of the reasons musl include the fact that as women, lesbians would generally earn less than men and so gay consumerism came more quickly to gay men than to lesbians and the resources for publishing were often denied them. Although many lesbians contributed greatly to both separatist and mixed lesbian and gay male journals, they were often also putting their energy into the women's movement. It can also be argued that it was (and is) often easier to be 'out' as a gay man than as a lesbian. Again although the reasons are unciear, it seems to be the case that those journals which do best are not 'mixed' but appeal either to lesbians or to gay men. Two titles dominate lesbian and gay publishing in Britain today. The Pink Paper is a weekly newspaper which provides detailed and generally supportive coverage to the campaigns of activists while also catering to those more interested in the scene. It's pages also reflect the growth in the "pink pound", with advertisements for gay and lesbian financial advisers and solicitors along with numerous job vacancies. The Gay Times has similar content but as a monthly has less immediate news and more features. A particular strength is its extensive review section including books, music, theatre, television and film and its encyclopaedic listings of pubs, clubs and groups throughout Britain. These journals have survived by appealing to a number of different groups of lesbians and gay men and reflect the demand for stylish, professionally presented (and therefore well financed) products. The only Scottish journal currently being published, other than the scene free sheets, is Gay Scolland. This journal has suffered, as have all the others, 26 from the effects of the recession, from the decline in membership of the Scottish Homosexual Rights Group (now Outright Scotland) and from the relative inactivity of the Scottish lesbian and gay movement. The future health of Gay Scotland depends as much upon the health of the lesbian and gay movement as it does on the skills and determination of those involved with its production. Many publications for gay men and lesbians continue to have relatively short life spans. Bona, from the same stable as the highly successful Pink Paper, closed in 1994 after only a few issues and, in the same year, Phase closed after only seven months of publication amid great acrimony. The job of producing a definitive list of lesbian and gay journals, let alone a definitive collection, is a daunting and constantly changing one. [11 The "Wolfenden Report" (i.e. The Report of the Committee on Homosexual Offences and Prostitution, 1957) recommended partial decriminalisation of male homosexual activity. For an analysis of the impact of the Wolfenden Report on lesbians and gay men in Britain see J. Weeks, Gorning Oyt Pluto Press, london 1977 (2) The Politics Dept. of Edinburgh University would not publish this paper unless the very titles of the paedophile journals were removed. These journals are included in this edition.

U.S.G.. 27 APPENDIX TWO' Other Sexual Minority Journals The question of the validity of connections between the lesbian and gay movement and other sexual minority groups continues to be controversial. The journals listed below include work by lesbians and gay men and are representative of groups which have had, and continue to have, an impact on the lesbian and gay movement such as it is. Bisexuality NLS holds #1 to #21 of Bimonthly (Per.3109/D), dating from Jan 1984 to Feb/March 1989. This journal was mainly the work of the London Bisexual Group and includes a wide range of material. A recurring theme is what relationship, if any, bisexual groups should seek with the lesbian and gay movement. Paedophilia The library has two paedophile titles. They are Magpie (Phi), #1 to #17 (1977 to 82), and Understanding Paedophilia (Phi), #1 to #4 (1976 to 77). Both these titles were associated with the Paedophile Information Exchange (PIE) and include news of PIE campaigns and business along with "learned" articles on legal and medical approaches to paedophilia. Mostly, though not exclusively, pederast. The Tartan Skirt (HP.sm.567), Sept 1984 to March 1990, reflects the close relationship between the Scottish TVITS Group and Edinburgh Gay Switchboard. The journal includes TVITS Group news, letters and feature articles on TVs in history etc.. The Glad Rag (HJ9.282), #1 to #60 (1982 to '92), was published in London and includes both international and national news, listings and feature articles. Neither of these journals is exclusively, or even largely, for gay TVITSs. 28 APPENDIX THREE Lesbian and/or gay jQurnals nQt fQund in NLS In the past twenty years or so there may have been as many as 300 lesbian and/Qr gay journals published. Many of these were short lived and of limited circulatiQn. A few Qf the tilles listed belQw have been taken from publicatiQns such as Jeffrey Weeks' CQming Out Qr from advertisements in Qther journals but most have been taken from the Hall Carpenter or Outright Archives. The title is followed by the place of pUblication and the decade the journal was first published where this is known. "Outlet" & "Stonewall News" should be received by NLS during 1995.
