	Homophile - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term "homophile" began to disappear with the emergence of the Gay Liberation movements of the late 1960s and early 1970s, replaced by a new set of terminology such as lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender, although some of the homophile groups survived until the 1980s, 90s and even the present day.
		Fogedgaard used the pseudonym "Homophilos", introducing the concept of "homophile" in May 1950, unaware that the word had been coined a few months previously by Jaap van Leeuwen, one of the founders of the Dutch COC.
		Homophile organisations elsewhere include Arcadie (1954) in France and the British Homosexual Law Reform Society (founded 1958).

	Gay Liberation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Specifically, the word 'gay' was preferred to previous designations such as homosexual or homophile; some saw 'gay' as a rejection of the false dichotomy heterosexual/homosexual.
		Lesbians and gays were urged to "come out", publicly revealing their sexuality to family, friends and colleagues as a form of activism, and to counter shame with gay pride.
		The homophile movement has been described as "politically conservative", although their calls for social acceptance of same-sex love and transsexuality were seen as radical fringe views by the dominant culture of the time.

	Homosexuality and Catholic Priests
		When it comes to homosexuality, however, a significant percentage of clergy, perhaps as high as forty per cent might be labeled homophile, and an even higher percentage than this is believed to be the case for seminary graduates since the 1960s and in the seminaries themselves.
		I use the term homophile rather than homosexuality because even though their fantasies and attractions might be for same sex partners, they strive to remain celibate with much the same effort as their heterophilic counterparts do.
		The mass exodus of priests in the 1960s and 1970s who then married was not matched by an exodus of the homophilic oriented priests and thus increasing the percentage of them in the Church.

	Anglican Mainstream
		Our sexuality may vary from the norm in many ways, of which a homophile orientation is but one, without affecting our equal worth and dignity as human beings, which rests on the fact that all of us alike are made in the image of God.
		Sexuality is given an inflated significance in human life; homophiles are wrongly made to feel devalued by the traditional reaching of the Church; and those who hold to that teaching are pressed to abandon it by implied accusations of cruelty and injustice.
		This includes those who, for whatever reason, fine themselves with a homophile orientation which, so far as anyone at present can tell, cannot in their case be changed, and within which therefore they have the responsibility of living human life creatively and well.

		Homophile, or gay rights, organizations were blossoming like wildflowers in Tuscany by the end of the 1960s, and their growth was marked by the formation of an Eastern Conference of Homophile Organizations in 1963, a North American Conference of Homophile Organizations ("NACHO") in 1966, and a Western Regional Planning Conference of Homophile Organizations in 1967.

	Homosexuality: Finding the Way of Truth and Life
		Finally, an indication is given of the multi-faceted response of the gospel to the needs of the homosexual person and the importance of Christian churches being communities of acceptance and friendship.
		All sexual acts should be evaluated by their relational qualities: what matters is whether or not a particular relationship or action will enhance human fulfilment, faithfulness between persons, genuine intimacy and mutuality.
		Homophile or heterophile, we share a common situation as human beings, sexual beings and sinful beings.

	Gay,Lesbian,Straight Education Network: Tips for Teaching with Gay Pioneers
		Homophile Movement - The post-World War II political movement to increase understanding of gay men and lesbians and to combat social and legal persecution.
		Despite this climate, emerging homophile groups like the Mattachine Society advocated for the equal treatment of gays and lesbians, but due to the threats they faced, tended to be conservative in their tactics.
		Rather than engage in open confrontation, the goal was to work within the system to lobby for social acceptability2 by showing that gays and lesbians fit into the accepted notion of “normal”—that is, educated, conservatively dressed, and nearly always white.

	words: homophile
		The homophile movement in the U. developed early in the 1950s with the formation of the Mattachine Society, the Daughters of Bilitis, and One.
		The experts were often willing to concede that homosexuals are not dangerous, and that they can even "make a contribution to society," but precious few granted that homosexuality is anything but a mental illness.
		The accommodationism of the homophiles has often been criticized as cowardly, but had they marched in the streets in 1955 shouting "out of the closets into the streets," the way gay libbers did fifteen years later, they would have found themselves locked up en masse on Lewd Vag charges, or worse.

		It was a spin-off from the University of Toronto Homophile Association (UTHA), formed in 1969.

		From the homophile point of view, the closet was always a confinement-really a badge of inferiority-as well as a refuge, and straight society's tendency to pry open the closet door left the homosexual with the worst of both worlds: neither privacy nor integrity.
		Homophile suppression, from the armed forces' exclusion of homosexuals to censorship campaigns, helped make sexual deviance sexy to untold numbers of Americans whose homoerotic impulses were stirred and sometimes awakened by the orgasmic hysteria of the witch hunters.
		The fury of 1954's "Miami Hurricane," as the homophile press dubbed it, abated, only to resurface, first in the 1956 campaign for Dade County Sheriff, then in a smaller witch hunt in Tampa during 1957-58, and finally in a statewide witch hunt from 1958 through 1964.

	After Stonewall Documents
		Legitimate Gay businessmen are afraid to open decent Gay bars with a healthy social atmosphere (as opposed to the hell-hole atmosphere of places typified by the Stonewall) because of fear of pressure from the unholy alliance of the Mafia and elements in the Police Dept. who accept payoffs and protect the Mafia monopoly.
		We at the Homophile Youth Movement (HYMN) believe that the only way this monopoly can be broken is through the action of Homosexual men and women themselves.
		10) The homophile movement must totally reject the insane war in Viet Nam and refuse to encourage complicity in the war and support of the war machine, which may well be turned against us.

		The basis for the protest was simply that the exclusion of homosexual men and women from military service because of their homosexuality and for no other reason was unfair.

	Gay & Lesbian Review Worldwide
		In the 1950's, some of the earliest recruitment for the Mattachine Society-one of the earliest U.S. homophile organizations-occurred when Harry Hay, a long-time Communist and labor organizer, and his comrades went to beaches and other gay cruising areas in Southern California asking people to sign a petition against the Korean War.
		Homophile activists sought the integration of homosexuals into mainstream American life and maintained that military service was inextricably connected to full citizenship rights.
		Many gay and lesbian veterans understood this connection on a personal level, having received less than honorable or "blue" discharges, which led to the denial of GI Bill benefits and limited their future employment opportunities.
