This article discusses the origin of the “gay clone” stereotype, the political construction of the subculture, and the use of social construction theory to understand this phenomenon. It is relevant to my topic because it discusses in depth different aspects of the “gay clone” and how it worked as a culture. It meets Wikipedia’s standards for a reliable source because it is a secondary source published in a peer-reviewed journal.

This book discusses different fashion styles that were popular among gay men at different times during the 20th century, and is relevant to my topic because it has a chapter dedicated to the development of the style and stereotype of the “gay clone”. It meets Wikipedia’s standards for a reliable source because it is a secondary source externally published in a book.

This book discusses the concept of the gay clone in-depth, including the origin of it, how it affected people’s lives, and how it lost popularity. This book is almost exclusively on my topic, and is therefore very relevant. It meets Wikipedia’s standards for a reliable source because it is a secondary source externally published in a book.
