Fanshawe, who was involved in the early homosexualist political movement, says, "We’ve fought
discrimination and prejudice, only to wreck ourselves with drugs and wild sex."

In his documentary Fanshawe admits that the homosexualist movement has in the main achieved
its political goals of equalising homosexuality with natural sexual relations, in abolishing laws
against sodomy and creating legal equivalency with marriage and adoption. Given these
achievements, Fanshawe asks, "Why do we seem hell bent on behaving like eternal teenagers?"

"We’re hooked on vanity, and regard older men with contempt. Despite AIDS we’re still chasing
the ultimate sexual high and what’s more are determined to wreck ourselves on designer
drugs..."

Gay men, he says, are so "hardwired" towards finding casual sexual encounters, some going as
far as plastic implants to enhance their appearance, that finding genuine intimacy is "practically
impossible."

"Vast amounts of our leisure time are organised around sex, straight or gay. But what gay men
have done is organise our identity around sex. And that is corrosive. And to make things worse,
promiscuity has become the norm."

The documentarian asks the proprietor of a gay sex bath house, "Paul," who had just related
some graphic stories of group sexual encounters in the establishment, "Are we just swimming
around in a sewer which we’re just sort of saying is normal?..."

Fanshawe says he is horrified at the lack of emotional involvement and at the willingness of men
to engage in "unsafe sex." The film includes statistics that show the deadly consequences of the
homosexual lifestyle. One in nine gay men in London is HIV infected and new cases of HIV have
doubled in the city in five years. Incidences of syphilis have increased in the same time period
616 per cent.

"Unsafe" sex, he says, is not the only way in which gay men are self destructive. "If there’s a new
drug, gay men will find it and take it," he states.

At one point Fanshawe interviews a homosexual man who has "done all the drugs" and now
campaigns in gay clubs against the growing use of crystal methamphetamine. The man, who
could not be identified for fear of reprisals from drug dealers, said that crystal meth is preferred
in the gay community because it reduces the inhibitions and allows sex to be brought to an
"animalistic" level "devoid of emotion." The film says that one in five gay men in London use
crystal meth.

Homosexual promiscuity and drug use go hand in hand. One person has aptly stated that gay sex
is simply another drug. It is devoid of any personal meaning, and is simply a way to receive a
temporal physical high. Homosexual men infected with AIDS, or HIV, share needles with drug
users who are not gay. The drug users became infected from the contaminated syringes, and
