Review # 1 was written on 2010-08-02 00:00:00 Thomas Balcerski A great book that explains how traits of our multiple identities are not independent choices but imposed by social constraints. This book relates race and gender impositions but not class. Class is considered an even less-articulated imposition. This book is both theoretical and ethnographic and is an easier read than most theoretical treatments.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-09-04 00:00:00 Steven Montesano Ngl, I didn't finish this book to its entirety. I had about 20 more pages to read but just couldn't get through the rest of it. It's weird because there were parts of it in which I really enjoyed the content and didn't want to put it down, while for other parts i was like "What is it trying to say?" I think the problem lies in the fact that it's a multi-authored book and I enjoyed the writing style of some authors more than others. It gave me a lot of amazing book recommendations and documentaries. It was correct in talking about how the gay rights movement has been largely exclusive to black people.
