|Abstract=This  paper  aims  to  examine  the  ways  in  which  the  presentation  of male homosexual  identity and  biography  is built up within the context  of a sociological research  interview  with  a  'straight'  researcher.1  These  'ways'  will,  it  is  hoped,  be shown  to  provide  not  only  for  the  communication  and  documentation  of  the substantive  features  of  male  homosexual  identity,  but  also  for  a  wide  range  of  other communicative  tasks  which  are  involved  in  the  description  of  persons.
 
In  other words,  following  Ryle  (1971),  we wish  to distinguish  two  orders  of cultural  knowledge  held  by  the  members  of  a  society,  namely'knowledge  that'(e.g. that  something  is  the  case)  and  'knowledge  how'.  Instead  of  simply  being  concerned with the substantive  conceptions  of homosexual  identity which  are manifested  in the  interviews,  we  are  also  interested  in  the  procedural  knowledge  which  is deployed  in  building  up  and  communicating  these  substantive conceptions.  We  are concerned  not  just  with  'colouring  in'  the  content  of  homosexual  identity  as manifested  in  the  interviews,  but  in  the  communicative  and  interpretive  methods through  which  society-members  avow,  ascribe  and  otherwise  mobilize  this  content. Since  procedural  knowledge  is,  of  course,  a  highly  diverse  and  extensive  order  of cultural  knowledge,  we  shall  focus  in  this  paper  on  those  communicative  or reasoning  procedures  which  are used  in the description  or  identification  of  persons, and  which  are  used  as descriptive  resources  in  the  presentation  of  the  respondents' identities.
