“When people assume that the Mafia is particularly homophobic, they’re looking backwards through the lens of the closet,” he says. “They’re looking at how the Mafia was in the ’80s and ’90s—and the fictional portrayals of them—and more broadly Italian-American culture. But what they’re forgetting is that earlier on, it was very different. Same-sex activity was unusually high among Italian immigrants because it wasn’t considered gay or homosexual, it was just sexual release.” And as Hortis points out in The Mob and the City, mobster “Crazy” Joey Gallo “talked about how ‘normal, natural, and unremarkable’ homosexuality was in prison.”


Crazy Joe Gallo was a ring raider?


I invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the United States constitution and decline to answer the question.

The Mafia is homophobic (like every oc group) but if its possible to made money with the fags they will do it.And anyway the homosexuality is common in prison (like the rapes) so what Gallo said of wrong?Maybe the mobsters in prison made sex with the other inmates and anyway Gallo wasn't a ring raider. lol lol lol
