Review
"It is in the process of coming out...Blasius argues, that lesbians and gay men create themselves—as new subjects, as the producers of new truth, and as agents of social change. Blasius gives a coherent account that ties together all these processes—from coming out to the emergence of lesbian and gay studies-and goes on to show the 'ethical' contribution that lesbians and gay men make to contemporary American society."
—Harvard Gay & Lesbian Review
