| Meer info | The gay experience is as unique as it is universal. Not all that different from the straight life, it is merely more intense in its extremes. It is filled with promeses and promiscuities, travels and trials, angst and armours, lovers and laughs. The latter is what this book is dedicated to. This is not a how-to book. Nor was it ever intended to be, except perhaps in the sense that it may open the door for the unsure and the straight into the joyous realm of gay humor. With a strong sensitivity to the passions of life and a finally tuned ironic flair, gays carry off a self-mocking style that is a stronger expression of self-acceptance than any intensly insistant declaration of contentments. Sometimes sophisticated and sometimes crude, but always self-aware, gay humor typically relies on hyperbole and dry-as-martini wit, but its ingenious patterns can take many forms. In those endlessly amusing commentaries on an age-old human experience that put the gay life into perspective and give it both added dimension and meaning. There is laughter. There is love. After all, there is an old saying about how when you can laygh about something, then you can begin to understand it - to make friends with it. James Thurber said it well: 'Humor is emotional chaos remembered in tranquility.' Long live the brotherhood. Long live the queens. HUDSON BROWN |
