Description

Most gay men can easily recall the first time they stepped into a gay bar. That step often represents the transition from a life of secrecy and isolation to a life of promise and hope that initially seems filled with countless uncertainties. Coming out will be easier for gay men who have this book. Here is advice not only for those who are just coming out, but also for men who are still learning about the many aspects of gay life. Coming Out Right covers such subjects as: what to expect and how to act in gay bars; how to decide whether to come out on the job; gay health and the AIDS crisis; the thrills and potential pitfalls of your first love affair; where to go for insurance, legal advice, and other professional help that is best for you as a gay man; the unique problems faced by men who are coming out when they're under 18 or over 30.
