Excellent,fast-read book, a must-read for all woman athletes
This is an excellent book that explores the deep roots of homophobia in women's sports and lists reasons why ALL women-athletes must work to negate the fear of lesbians in sport!

An interesting read
I flipped through this book in a college library and found it very interesting. Most enlightening were the real life experiences embedded in the techincal( for lack of a better word) information provided.
