First line

In 1992, nearing the twenty-fifth anniversary of the publication of "Berdache: A Brief Review of the Literature" (Jacobs 1968), it became important to me to questions whether the "berdache" [sic] enterprise of the 1980s had been part of a movement for remasculinization of certain American and European men (white heterosexual males with classic education) through the exotification of "others" (particularly males of color and males living in exoticized cultures).
