As the growing gay mainstream prioritizes the attainment of straight privilege over all else, it drains queer identity of any meaning, relevance, or cultural value. What's more, queers remain under attack: Gay youth shelters can be vetoed because they might reduce property values. Trannies are out because they might offend straights. ''That's Revolting!'' offers a bracing tonic to these trends. Edited by Mattilda Bernstein Sycamore, ''That's Revolting!'' collects timely essays such as ''Dr. Laura, Sit on My Face,'' ''Gay Art Guerrillas,'' and ''Queer Parents: An Oxymoron Or Just Plain Moronic?'' by unrepentant activists like Patrick Califia, Kate Bornstein, and Carol Queen. This updated edition contains seven new selections that cover everything from rural, working-class youth in Massachusetts to gay life in New Orleans to the infamous Drop the Debt/Stop AIDS action in New York. This lively composite portrait of cutting-edge queer activism is a clarion call for anyone who questions the value of becoming the Stepford Homosexual.
