Publisher's Synopsis

In an era when men and women are supposed to be from "different planets" and unable to communicate, many gay men and straight women seem able to connect almost effortlessly. Perhaps it is because this is not a relationship of convenience or forced by societal pressure, but a friendship based on common interests, mutual respect, and real affection. Whether they are commiserating about love lives or getting the insider's perspective on what men or women really think, gay men and straight women often turn to one another for the real scoop. And they can count on each other to say, "you look fabulous," "thinner," or "younger" - whichever is needed. Best-selling author and psychotherapist Robert Hopcke and Tony-nominated producer Laura Rafaty combine poignant stories, psychological insight, and commentary to explore this common but often ignored bond.
