Empowering and Entertaining
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
There are many editted anthologies of queer affirming nonfiction essays out there but for me, this one was different. Because the essays in this book were more personal and less "academic", it was a quick and enjoyable read with important messages. The editors did an excellent job of including essays representing the lesbian, gay male, bisexual, transgender/gender queer and ally communities. Additionally, many of the essays explored and discussed the intersection of sexual orientation and gender identity with other identities such as class, ability, gender, spirituality etc. The real-life stories in this book were sometimes hilarious, sad, offensive, empowering, maddening, thought-provoking, and inspiring. I believe you will not regret reading this book.
