Synopsis

SPEAKING UP QUEER AND COMING OUT STRONG

No one knows better the rewards of standing up and speaking out as a gay man than Bob Paris. A former Mr. Universe, he is a dynamic activist, famed motivational speaker, and the author of several successful books, including the acclaimed Gorilla Suit. Now Bob Paris takes a revelatory look at what it means to be young, gay, and out in the age of liberation.

In this groundbreaking book he insightfully probes the pressures of coming to grips with being gay in a society that has traditionally condemned homosexuality. He explores the incredible, historic opportunity for social healing and growth in today's world -- and, drawing on his own spiritual journey, offers keen advice on nurturing healthy relationships and self-esteem. Finally, through questions and answers culled from his mailbag as an activist and lecturer, he helps gay people of all ages and from all walks of life cope with their feelings and the world at large.

Compassionate, uplifting, illuminating, GENERATION QUEER will inspire gay men and women to overcome prejudice with dignity and take their place in the warmth of a universe that welcomes us all.
