Perché mai si dovrebbe desiderare di diventare gay? Innanzi tutto perché non c'è un buon motivo per desiderare di essere etero, a parte una patologica assenza di fantasia. Poi perché essere eterosessuale è fuori moda. E infine perché bastano cinque settimane e un po' di buona volontà per scoprire l'altra sponda che, nella maggior parte dei casi, non è poi così lontana. Se siete sicuri di non essere gay, se siete certi di non conoscerne, questo manuale metterà alla prova le vostre sicurezze e vi dischiuderà orizzonti sconosciuti. Seguendo le gesta di Bruce e di Diana.
