Himself a homosexual, Fisher presents a readable panorama of male gay life, asking questions every heterosexual asks (and questions many never thought to ask). He demythologizes and humanizes the male gay world, critically examining the oppressing majority culture and the efforts of the gay liberation movement to end that oppression...[this] is a superb book, for parents, counselors, researchers, and gay persons."
