Présentation de l'éditeur

Chastity Bono grew up in the spotlight cast on her parents, but nothing could have prepared her for the events of December 1990, when the tabloid newspaper the Star outed her to the world. Out at that time only to her family and close friends, the shock of that public revelation drove Chastity back into the closet. Coming out to her family had been difficult, and four years passed before Chastity decided, with both of her parents' blessing, to come out publicly on her own terms -- and to unexpected acclaim -- on the cover of The Advocate. But the arduousness of her own experience had revealed to Chastity the need for a book that could guide gays and lesbians and their families through the minefield of the coming-out process. In Family Outing, Chastity weaves her story into those of other gays and lesbians of diverse ethnic and economic backgrounds to illustrate and advise about the phases, pitfalls, and rewards of coming out. She also relates Cher's side, along with the experiences of other parents of gays and lesbians, so that parents will be able to turn to the book for advice and support.
