NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERNow in paperback--Peggy Orenstein, author of the groundbreaking New York Times bestseller Girls & Sex, turns her focus to the sexual lives of young men. "Eye-opening.... Every few pages, the boy world cracks open a little bit.... Even in the most anxiety-provoking moments of Boys & Sex, it's clear that Orenstein believes in the goodness of boys and the men they can become, and she believes in us, as parents, to raise them" (New York Times Book Review).Peggy Orenstein's Girls & Sex broke ground, shattered taboos, and launched conversations about young women's right to pleasure and agency in sexual encounters. It also had an unexpected effect on its author: Orenstein realized that talking about girls is only half the conversation. Boys are subject to the same cultural forces as girls--steeped in the same distorted media images and binary stereotypes of female sexiness and toxic masculinity--which equally affect how they navigate sexual and emotional r

本書透過深度訪談與作者親身經歷，描寫第二代移民同志男性在洛杉磯成長的種種掙扎。他們在父母的期待與社會的沉默中摸索自我，常在家庭中避談性傾向，在學校與社區中感受孤立。書中呈現的不只是出櫃的過程，更細緻描寫他們如何建立自己的社群、尋找情感支撐。Ocampo從自己作為菲裔美籍同志的視角出發，與他人經歷交織出一段段複雜卻真實的生命故事。這是一本關於身份認同、文化衝突與情感連結的作品，讓人看見「成為自己」背後那條不易的路。The stories of second-generation immigrant gay men coming of age in Los Angeles Growing up in the shadow of Hollywood, the gay sons of immigrants featured in Brown and Gay in LA could not have felt further removed from a world where queerness was accepted and celebrated. Instead, the men profiled here maneuver through family and friendship circles where masculinity dominates, gay sexuality is unspoken, and heterosexuality is strictly enforced. For these men, the path to sexual freedom often involves chasing the dreams while resisting the expectations of their immigrant parents--and finding community in each other. Ocampo also details his own story of reconciling his queer Filipino American identity and those of men like him. He shows what it was like for these young men to grow up
