- catalog abstract "Gay or straight. It's simple, right? Or is there a gray area, where the definitions of sex and gender become blurred, or entirely refocused with a surgeon's knife? For some, gender--the very idea we have of ourselves as either male or female beings--is neither simple nor straightforward. Based on original research, sex expert Bailey's book is grounded firmly in science--but science doesn't always deliver predictable or even comfortable answers. Are gay men genuinely more feminine than other men? Do they really prefer to be hairdressers rather than lumberjacks? Are all male transsexuals women trapped in men's bodies--or are some of them men who are just plain turned on by the idea of becoming a woman? While Bailey's science is provocative, it is the portraits of the boys and men who struggle with these questions--and often with anger, fear, and hurt feelings--that will move you.--From publisher description.".
