- Summary:
- "The authors of Why Gay Guys Are a Girl's Best Friend know how to talk the talk, and now they share their expertise in a delightfully illustrated and enlightening look at the gay and lesbian vocabulary. With sections devoted to men on men, women on women, sex, straights, fashion sense (or lack thereof), and more, they provide sassy, on-target definitions, and even include tips on proper usage." "From "buysexual" to "Mary," "Martha," and the "Sacred Band of Thebes," here is a fabulous compendium of terms guaranteed to ruffle the pages of Noah Webster himself!"--Jacket
