Description
This is the second of two programmes about sociological research into homosexuality. It consists of extracts from a longer interview with a young man living in a working class suburban area. Stephe...n Power, born in 1958, is asked about why he thinks he turned out to be homosexual and what it's like to be gay. Stephen realised he was 'gay' about the age of 17 and came out two years later. This interview makes an interesting contrast to the one with the older man shown in the previous programme.
