 Bi Any Other Name: Bisexual People Speak Out
by Lorain Hutchins (Editor), Lani Kaahumanu
Our Price: $12.95
"One really good point that this book stresses is the duality of our monosexual culture-- the belief that everyone is either gay or straight. Our society leaves no room for the enormous spectrum between the two, since very few people are 100% homo- or heterosexual, and I think the book did a good job of emphasizing this point, and the way bisexuals feel out of place or "invisible" in both the straight and gay communities...I Highly recommend this book for everyone" -- Amazon.com User Review
