Description

In this series of cultural polemics on an unexpected array of contemporary topics - from mistaken first impressions ('Presumed Hetero Unless Proven Gay') to sustainable yet unaffordable underwear ('Socially Responsible Pants') to critiques of bourgeois mindsets ('Middle Class Writer') - author Larry-bob Roberts offers hilarious insight into the absurdities of modern life and queer culture. His humorous observations are destined to jostle readers' complacency and confirm their worst suspicions.
