A good overview
I enjoyed the book overall, but found it lacking in someperspectives.It's wonderful from a multi-cultural standpoint, butthere is very little information about rural bisexuals, or those _not_ living out, queer lives.It's a good place to start reading on the subject, though, and the historical perspective was interesting. ...

CRUCIAL reading for all librarians and would-be librarians
These essays provide a summation of various aspects of the modern gay rights movement.They powerfully move a gay reader to feel a history of hardships borne by both his contemporaries and their predecessors, and voice an impassioned, emphatic and empathic plea to become involved, to join the network, to take up the torch of enthusiasm from those who carry it now lest it burn out or drop.The text on the whole is a testimony of the efforts of the keepers of the �flame of the status quo� contrasted with the successes of a silent minority which found voices to resist, to even throw off the yoke of persecution so firmly fitted about their necks by the aforementioned group, who had so long successfully deprived this silent minority of the knowledge and the means to unburden itself.This scholarly work caused me to draw heavily on my own personal life experiences to relate to, sympathize with, and at times empathize with the authors as they described their experiences. ...

Personal Stories from Christian Gay, Lesbian, Bi-Sexual and Transgender People
I think this is a great book for anyone who wants to expand their understanding of those who are any of the above. It is so easy for those of us not in this situation to misunderstand and even to have very negative beliefs about any of these people.To hear their own individual stories in a non-judgemental way is to open all of us to greater acceptance and love.

We need more books like this!
This book was given to me as a gift, as I am a Christian who is gay. And what a gift! This book is a collection of short faith stories by Christian men and women who are gay and love God. Contrary to one popular Christian belief-system, having a homosexual orientation and serving the Lord God are not necessarily mutually exclusive, and this book helps to dispel this view. The many different folks in this book write honestly about what they have been through in their journeys, often saying that they have been hurt by other people but loved by Jesus. It's a gentle, heart-warming book!

From Wounded Hearts

Remarkable Achievement
With this new book Dr. Glenda Russell has achieved what few scholars ever have.She has given us a solid, scholarly andrigorous accounting of her research into the effects of the passage of Colorado's notorious, homophobic Amendment 2 on gay people. In addition, she has given us many completely readable narratives that bring the devastating psychological effects down to individuals deeply harmed by the vote.(Amendment 2 was later overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court.)If the scholarly research reporting is too much for most of us, the personal accounts are well worth the reading.One wishes that all scholars would report their findings in such friendly ways, ways that all of us can access. A splendid book, both for its careful explication of research methods and results and for its careful discriptions of how anti-gay politics really does very deep and personal damage gay people. Lay readers may not want to read this book from front to back, but it's well worth the paperback price to have it on hand for those parts that are so readable and moving. It is a bonus that Russell writes so well--clearly and concisely, unlike the authors of most academic tomes. ... Read more

Ground breaking research
Hertzog's work examines the electoral behavior and political participation of GLBT Americans. Notably with the 1992 election of Bill Clinton, this group came out of the shadows of American politics, and their quest for equality was given unparralleled endorsement first from the campaign trail, and then the White House.

bi guys, AIDS, and the globe
This anthology literally moves from west to east: it starts with American male bisexuality and AIDS and ends with the topic in New Zealand.Some of the chapters may feel repetitive because the issues are the same; only the cultural/political context differs.This is a great resource book for those interested in men of color that have relations with other men.This may also be an important text for AIDS activists, especially those involved on a global scale.

Great topic, kinda mediocre text
The editor acknowledges something that is glaringly true:there is not enough published materials about the lives of working-class gay men and lesbians.This is the editor's much needed attempt to buck that trend.However, it is written for social workers much more than for the topic population.In addition, it is nowhere as excellent as Leslie Feinberg's "Stone Butch Blues" or Dorothy Allison's texts.Boys gotta do better in this area.Read more
