Summary: A book unlike any other
Review: Any young gay man who has ever tried to find a book written for them, by them, and about the issues that are important to them, knows how hard it is too find one. Sure there are coming out books for adults and coming out books for parents of gay children and plenty of books on the best hotels in Palm Springs for Circuit Party '01, but the XY Survival Guide is the only book I have ever seen that is written for young men who want clear and honest facts about homosexuality. The Guide is packed full of useful and hard-to-find information, stories and resources. It has answered many of my questions about being gay, eased many of my fears with useful information and taught me many things that have helped me live a healthier and happier life.

Summary: XY Survival Guide is Essential Reading for All Youth!
Review: Hello Everyone. My name is Trevor Scott and I am a contributor to the Guide. (Page 91). I believe that this book is the most essential peice of literature to emmerge in decades. Its honest coverage and analysis of gay/bi/questioning life for so many different bois is amazing. I have been out for over a year, and I still learned from it. I only wish I could have had it when I was 14-- I know my journey would have been so much smoother. XY helps young men like myself realize how beautiful we are, whoever we are and whoever we choose to love. XY is in many cases a literal lifesaver! If you are gay -- BUY IT! If you are bi -- BUY IT! Not sure? -- BUY IT! And if you are straight and an ally I beg you to buy it, you will learn so much about the world around you. Also, feel free to email me at [e-mail] if you have any questions. THANK YOU!

Review: Hey there, This book is truely the best thing I have ever read. Why didn't XY think of this book 2 years ago when I came out??? Anyway I read this book from front to back and it's truely what every gay boi needs. I even bought one for my room mate's boi and he loves it.

Summary: Thank you XY
Review: I have to say that the Survival Guide is the best thing there is out there that has been written for young teenagers that are coming out or need advice on any subject that deals with everyday society in the Gay World as people so call it. Benjie, Mike, Peter, and Brian are great people to write such a wonderful book. This book has helped me and i know will help all of my friends here in Kentucky. I sugest that if anyone gets a chance to purchase this inspirational book then do it. Thank you Benjie, Mike, Peter, and Brian for the help and support through your book. It has been a great help.

Love, John

Summary: Awesome book by awesome people!
Review: I'm 16 years old and I live in a small city where the only time anything is said related to homosexuality is when the normal jock football player calls other guys 'gay'. I never knew much about homosexuality. I knew the basic stuff but I didn't know how to cope with things that you have to go through in life as a homosexual, and I needed to know, being that I was just finding myself. As I found the answers in this great book, which might I add, is PACKED with answers, I found new friends. I found that the creative minds behind this book were people just like me, who had been through what I was going through, and knew what they were talking about. Guys and girls, to bring my story to a complete halt, this book is a must have. Whether you're straight, and you want to know about homosexuality, or you're 'gay' and looking for answers, this book is for you. Hey, buy a couple and give them out to the jocks at your local high school. They need it too! Thank you Benjie and Michael. I love you both. -Austin.

Summary: The Holy Bible
Review: Some people may not realize how powerful this book is but they should. It is sooo important. I ordered a copy from XY's website because i'm not out and when it came i was literally on the verge of doing something really drastic to kill myself. I was that unhappy with myself and my situation. But this book saved my life. I realized all the cool things about being gay that I never realized were true before. I got resources and ways to have discussions with my parents in ways that they could respect and learn. I read about happy gay people's lives and I especially enjoyed the history section where everything I learned in school got put in gay perspective. This whole book gives you a new perspective! Everything in this book literally pulled the wool from my eyes and got rid of my fear. And it gave me hope. If you are young and gay, this book is your Holy Bible. Believe me!
