Negative Positive
Title: Mostly A Vanity Project
Review: There are some good points and important insights in this book, but I can't recommend it. The author (who is bisexual, not Gay) has good intentions, but all too often, his ego and ghetto-fabulous lingo trip him up. For a guy who used to be a teacher, Mr. Setfrey's grammar leaves something to be desired. "Ebonics" or Black English doesn't have to sound ignorant! I didn't like his casual use of the word "homo", either. My biggest objection is to his comments about the Black women who have been attracted to him. Yes, those women were homophobic, but they didn't deserve to become the butt of crass jokes. Tearing other people down to build yourself up, that's not the answer.
Is the review positive or negative?
