Bech proposes a novel interpretation of the nature of masculinityand its connections with homosexuality. Besides a criticaldiscussion of existing theories in the area, the author alsoanalyses a rich variety of other materials, including novels, filmsand other literature. When Men Meet represents both ananalysis of the places in which encounters occur - the railwaystation, the park, the disco, the consulting room, the stadium -but is also a metaphor for key aspects of modernity. In analysingthe nature of the modern social world, Bech makes use of insightsfrom Adorno and Benjamin as well as Sartre and Heidegger. Modernity and sexuality, Bech argues, are both intertwined andchanging. He concludes by proposing that, having been created bymodernity, 'the homosexual' is now disappearing in conjunction withthe changes transforming modernity itself.
