Switch Hitters Lesbians Write Gay Male Erotica and Gay Men Write Lesbian Erotica

"'Switch Hitters' asks many interesting questions: Is there a homoerotic sensibility independent from gender?

And, does our erotic writing speak more to questions of gender or to questions of sexual orientation? These are not easily answered questions, either in the ensuing stories, or in any other context.

That alone makes their point.Queen, Carol is the author of 'Switch Hitters Lesbians Write Gay Male Erotica and Gay Men Write Lesbian Erotica', published 1996 under ISBN 9781573440219 and ISBN 1573440213.
