In more than 30 essays, gays, lesbians, and bisexuals look back at their school days to find that they are still trying to unlearn a basic lesson imparted by the educational system to homosexuals: ‘Hate yourself’.<\/p>\n

From Library Journal<\/p>\n

Jennings (One Teacher in Ten: Gay and Lesbian Educators Tell Their Stories, LJ 10\/1\/94) gathers recollections from 37 gays, lesbians, and bisexuals about their experiences at school. Some of the contributors came out in school; others came out later in life and now reflect on their youth and the signs of their sexual orientation. Because the contributors range in age, their comments provide glimpses of gay life across the decades. Virtually all the writers offer painful stories, from loneliness and isolation to being beaten. This book will give straight people some insight into the struggles of growing up gay or bisexual and will resonate with gay and bisexual readers. Recommended for public and school libraries.?Debra Moore, Loyola Marymount Univ. Lib., Los Angeles<\/p>\n
