I wish I had this book as a teenager. It would have helped me understand what friends have gone through and my own questioning of my sexuality.
It's such a great starting point, not too academic and not too "simple". I appreciated Dawson not using euphemisms and just stating things as they are.
While I read the revised and updated version, I feel there were still a few areas that need updating (e.g. open relationships). But with sexuality and gender we are redefining them and they're changing all the time (which is a good thing).
