Description:
The first openly trans author on a Classics list, this is a unique first-hand account of a historical trans man's life, which read like a euphoric coming-of-age novel.



A unique first-hand account of a historical gay trans man's whole life, which reads like a celebratory coming-of-age novel.




Lou kept candid diaries from the age of 10. Through these extracts, we hear Lou's life in his own words- from 'playing boys' in his childhood in Wisconsin, to cruising San Francisco's gay bars for handsome 'youngmen'; from first hearing about gender non-conforming communities, to becoming a vital part of them as an activist, author, and archivist.




Lou navigated his identity with few role models and was perhaps the first publicly gay transgender man. Successfully campaigning to remove heterosexuality from the medical requirements for gender affirming surgery, Lou was pivotal in our modern understanding of gender and sexuality as distinct identities. After he was diagnosed with HIV in 1986, he remarked that he had been told by clinics that 'it was impossible for me to live as a gay man, but it looks like I'm gonna die like one.'




This selection shows Lou's joyous love of life, men, and sex.

SMELLS SO BAD!!!
Balls LOOK great and bounce fine BUT they smell SO TERRIBLE! Like moth balls. I've left them outside to air out for a couple days but if the smell remains I'll have to return. Just can't stand the smell, it's too strong and overwhelming.

Used for my dog.
These balls are great for playing fetch and at a decent price. I have a small dog (15 lbs) and she doesn't tear them up quickly. Unfortunately when we go to the dog park her much bigger friends steal them and destroy them. So buying them in bulk makes it easier to make sure we always have a ball to throw.
