Summary: Straightforward answers
Comment: As a member of a college gay-straight alliance, I have been asked a range of questions about my lifestyle and issues relating to it. I bought "Is it a Choice?" because I wanted to add some authority to my answers. What I found instead was a reversal of roles: instead of answering the questions myself, I discovered that I was asking the questions, and Eric Marcus was giving me his opinion. It was like sitting down in a den and interviewing the author over a cup of coffee. I think everyone, no matter how versed they may be in gay issues, can benefit from this book.

Rating: 3
Summary: Disappointed
Comment: I was anxiously awaiting the arrival of this book, but was, sadly, disappointed when I read it.

Disappointed, not because I disagree with the information, but because the author makes a fundamental mistake: He never cites any studies to support his answers, despite the fact that there are numerous studies that support most of his answers.

So if you are trying to convince someone who is skeptical of the gay movement, then this is NOT a good book since it never cites any evidence to back up its claims.

Rating: 5
Summary: Just about the only book you would ever need
Comment: I found this book absolutely amazeing and helpful. I've looked at other books in the past and they will cover parenting or dating or occasionally religion but I have never found a book quite like this that covers everything. It answers questions about stuff that many homosexuals wonder about, and many of the stuff heterosexuals wonder about. It covers misconceptions of both sides, not just heterosexual misconseptions but also many misconceptions homosexuals have about heterosexuals. Its fantastic. I plan to suggest this book to my school's Gay/Straight Alliance Advisor so we might use it as a topic of discussion or just plain use it at our meetings. It is so full of great information and good examples that I don't think it gets any better for helping people, all people understand.
