"No one has done a better job of chronicling what it is like to be gay in America [than Brian McNaught]."
- U.S. Representative Barney Frank

"Clear, well-organized and straightforward, McNaught is an excellent resource. His book is for gays to read and share with their colleagues and, when possible, their employers...a significant index of how lesbians and gay men are transforming society by being out in the workplace."
- Genre Magazine

"Getting there may be half the battle, but until now no one had really addressed what we should do once we've arrived. McNaught, one of our most prominent sexuality educators, comes to our rescue with a practical primer that's both informative and fun to read."
