American academic David Halperin has a new book out (I've only just ordered it myself) entitled 'How to Be Gay', and the writer/thinker Mark Simpson has an interview with him in Out. You can check it out here.
I havent read the book either. I have ordered a review copy.
But I am already concerned about the title. as you know I have a lot of problems with 'gay' identity politics and i dont like how (often white middle class)gay men tend to make 'gay' into a special separate identity. This alienates bisexual and trans and 'queer' people.
