I'm wondering what sort of person would give a kid this book, and under what circumstances. What would you say to a kid when you gave them the book?
"Hey, I thought you might have sexual-identity issues from being diddled by your uncle and some emotional problems from your parents' unhappy marriage, since you act like such a poof and cry all the time, so I got you this book to read. Gayness can be cured by counselling, so if you ever want to talk to me about how to stop being a fag, you know where my office is."
