From the author of the bestselling "Newt Gingrich's Bedtime Stories for Orphans" comes a humorous book that takes a look at the strange--often inexplicable--habits of heterosexuals.
O'Leary & Crimmins have done a marvelous job of sending up that terrifyingly odd collection of human beings called heterosexuals. This is a witty, sometimes cheeky and always funny poke into the ribs of straight America. And it's about time!
They're here to stay, so we best understand them!

Buy two copies -- one for your bookself and one for your medicine cabinet. It's the perfect cure for all those headaches caused by, well you know, them. Bad day at the office? Read chapter 1 (overview). Sick of your favorite movie being pre-empted by the...playoffs? Is that what they call them?...Read chapter 7 (sports). Nauseated from a trip to the mall? Read chapter 6 (lifestyle). The strong of constitution may want to brave chapter 3 (mating habits). The section on the honeymoon is truly our Rosetta stone. I laughed so hard I nearly spewed latte!

A Gay Man's Guide to Heterosexuality by C.E. Crimmins and Tom O'Leary. Besides being the #1 Best-Selling Gay & Lesbian Nonfiction Book in the US it's also a hoot beyond words. Virtually a sick and highly humorous explanation of those who begat us all, it's guaranteed to have you on the floor doubled over (not with your legs in the air) but this time with genuine gut laughter - - the kind you havent had since the early Woody Allen films. From the McCall's-type photo illustration on the cover through this humorous look at the strange habits of heterosexuals, this is the best beach-read of the summer! Or the perfect hostess gift! Anyway you look at het-life or at yourself you can't go wrong with a copy stuffed in your speedos on Fire Island, The Russian River, Key West Provincetown or Boys Town. A hit for all seasons, a palpable hit!
This is the funniest book I've read since "Barrel Fever"!

Hilarious! This book is a spot on send-up of the love that dare speak it's name---heterosexuality. My gay and straight friends alike have been falling out of their chairs, laughing. Congratulations!
This is the funniest writing I've read since Fran Liebowitz.

My friends and I laughed until we lost our breath! It's about time someone turned all of the gay stereotypes around and made fun of straights. My favorite bit was about straight people inventing the television so they wouldn't have to go out at night. Loved the book! I sent one to my mother this morning!
