Boy Does World: Fifteen Years of Bad Behaviors, Bad Attitudes, and Happy Endings

by Sean Bugg

It’s a big world. Somebody’s gotta do it. As a kid in rural Kentucky, Sean Bugg dreamed of the day he would make it to the big city. When he got there, the small town boy found himself in a big-town world of sex, love, parties, fashion disasters, some more sex, boyfriends, ex-boyfriends, and―finally―true love. “Sean was fearlessly funny in a fearful era clouded by AIDS, and Boy Does World is a wonderful chance to enjoy a retro romp into that past. It’s also an affirming look at some happy endings―the hard-won, worth-fighting-for future of gay equality and domestic bliss.” ― Hank Stuever, author of Tinsel and Off Ramp “Sean’s story of sexual discovery is one that many gay men will relate to, but it’s written in a funny, insightful way that few other writers could match.” ― Craig Seymour, author of All I Could My Life in the Strip Clubs of Gay Washington, D.C.

[Bob Witeck · Rating 5 out of 5]

Sean Bugg has a disarming candor in almost everything he writes. Almost fearless but with a drop of holding back a little. As an openly gay journalist and author, he has committed so many sensitive, authentic, eye-popping and awakening tales to paper that many avid readers - like me - will crave. His first book is a distillation of these gifts, and likely will appeal to readers of all backgrounds and identities who will enjoy lifting the curtain on his inner and public life and times.

Hysterical if you like his sense of humor (and you're gay or you get gays).
