Running With Scissors

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Gay and Lesbian
by: Augusten Burroughs

August 29, 2006
First the 'authentic' memoir that he had to settle out of court. Then the moaning about being an alcoholic, now he writes a book about his father. A little self-obsessed are we? Anyone who would change their name from Chris Robison to Augesten Xon Burroughs must have a little bit of an ego problem. Was the name Obi-Wan Charlemagne taken already? Get over it already and get over yourself. I mean what's next, a memoir about loosing your hair?
So you're a bald white guy, not happy about your family or your upbringing. Then when you got older you drank too much - whoa stop the presses, what a unique life. If every Joe who fit this description wrote a book the world would be empty of paper in a week.
A line from his book says it all: ... Read More:

The Whole Lesbian Sex Book: A Passionate Guide for All of Us

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Gay and Lesbian
by: Felice Newman

October 29, 2004
I own a lot of lesbian sex books, and greatly anticipated delivery of this one. It's quite entertaining and informative, but in my opinion (and maybe I'm too conservative here) there is too much emphasis on group sex and S&M. This is probably great for the San Fran/New York scenes, but not where I live! Not to say that people don't indulge in such fun, I myself have dabbled a bit, but the book just didn't speak to me.
I was willing to forgive, but then I came across the illustration of a woman's breasts with multiple needles inserted. Then I got angry. I thought "Great,that's all we need, for straight people to read this book and figure that's what lesbians do routinely. They'll think we're all completely f___ked." Plus, I found many of the illustrations ... Read More:

Queer Jews

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Gay and Lesbian
by: Shneer

June 28, 2002
Shneer & Aviv's Queer Jews presents a striking collection of academic thought, personal experience and political views expressed by an interesting and diverse group of contributors who have much to offer on the issues affecting people who identify as a minority group within a minority group - both queer and Jewish.

This informed volume bravely assesses where queer & Jewish people currently are in the progression towards acceptance by both their own culture as well as the wider society, whilst providing important pointers for future work that must yet be done.

As a non-Jew, I have found this milestone work to be a useful and fascinating insight into understanding the experiences and issues dealt with by friends who are both queer and ... Read More:

Sellevision: A Novel

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Gay and Lesbian
by: Augusten Burroughs

May 13, 2003
Loved this book. I've read his others too and thought they were great. Finished novels in the traditional sense? No, but they're highly entertaining and fresh. Edgy and definitely not for those who are easily offended, these books are a great break from the "traditional" literature you were required to read in school. Thanks A.B.!

No other book comes even close to this one on explanations. If one wants to know the nitty gritties of doing Pranayama. This is the book. Period!!
