The Gay Revolution begins in the 1950s, when law classified gays and lesbians as criminals, the psychiatric profession saw them as mentally ill, the churches saw them as sinners, and society victimized them with irrational hatred. Against this dark backdrop, a few brave people began to fight back, paving the way for the revolutionary changes of the 1960s and beyond.

Amazing and deep history of the LGBT community

I could only listens to a few chapters at a time as the whole book was mind blowing! So much information, stories, heartbreak, tragedy, triumph, success and above all else, revolution! I thought I had a good understanding of the growth of LGBT rights before listening to this book, but I’ve learned more than I could have though possible. Pick this book of you want to know the struggles that came before, and to get motivated to keep up the fight for LGBT rights today and in the future.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 150,112
For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

Good read, but not much new revealed
Reviewed: 06-20-18
For those who are new to eastern religions and theology like Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, this is a great first step to exploring those ideas further. Otherwise, books like the Tao of Pooh will be more enlightening of a read.
The use of more abrupt terms like f*ck May make this seem more bad ass, but this won’t be for everyone.

Well written and what you come to expect from Lena Dunham, but depressing for no particular reason.
If you enjoy her work, you'll enjoy the book, but expect her dark world view to be the focal point. Don't expect any kind of comfort from this read.
