How Homophobia Hurts Children by Jean M Baker

The author confronts both the challenges and psychological and emotional damage faced by LGBTQI youth in the U.S.A. The book looks at the pervasiveness of homophobia in schools, churches and, importantly, families. Notwithstanding bullying by youth, Baker posits that the adults of the world are to bear the brunt of the blame for the damage done. Don't look for a deep analysis of sexual identity, but rather, the discussion and debunking of queer fallacies perpetrated largely by the heterosexual community.
