Summary

From the author of such classics as A Letter to Harvey Milk, and Heather Has Two Mommies, comes a delightful collection of light, hilarious verse about the butch from the femme perspective with titles like 'A Butch for All Seasons', 'Born Again Butch', 'Call of the Butch' and 'Ballad of Billy the Butch' to name a few. The sparkle of romance is mixed with the wicked glee of eroticism in each selection, and goes beyond what any greeting card could dream up.
