Summary: Yes, Sir! Another Bulls-eye for Michael Tomas Ford
Review: Michael Thomas Ford is not only funny but his humoresque take on gay life is so dead on it is frightening how honest and true it is. Highly recommended! You may not agree with everything he says but you'll at least laught for the his honesty and comedic view on gay life. Even though this book is a couple of years old it is still very fresh and funny. Do yousrself a huge favor and read at least one of his "My Queer Life" books, I don't think you'll be disappointed. I certainly wasn't and I doen't give authors five star ratings very easily, unless it is well deserved. I would love to see his mini essays transfered into a one-person stage show. I think it would do very well.

Summary: Humorous, Insightful and Well-Crafted
Review: Michael Thomas Ford's sequel to "Alec Baldwin Doesn't Love Me" is addictive reading. The anecdotes that he presents from his life are beyond merely humorous; they reflect his mature insight and remarkable sense of jaded wit. Mr. Thomas doesn't endeavor to simply bring a smile to your face -- his articulate commentary reflects his point of view on a great variety of subjects that run the gamut from lazy pets to the evolution of what it means to be gay. A must-read. I can only hope that there is more to come.

Summary: Another Home Run!
Review: Mr. Ford, once again, shows much wit and intelligence in writing of the trials and tribulations of gay life in the 90's. A bit more edgy than "Alec Baldwin", "Mr. Faggot" doesn't pull any punches, and shows a little Greg Araki spirit, specifically in an essay delineating the benefits of assassinating (euthanasia?)several key figures in the religious right. Obviously, Mr. Ford, while writing in an extremely personal manner, speaks for many of us who feel somewhat alienated by some of the fascism inherent in urban queer culture (for lack of a better description). Give this book a try, you won't be disappointed!

Summary: Heartfelt, witty, and sometimes contrite
Review: MTF does another 5 star job describing his life. His description of Christmas brought back so many memories I had to put the book down and wipe away the tears of laughter and lost youth. To MTF: Alec Baldwin may not love you, but I sure do!

Summary: Amazing As Usual
Review: My best friend and I read and quote MTF's essays as if they were the Holy Bible itself. This is perhaps among the funniest books I've ever read (with MTF's others also up there) and perhaps among the most absolutely hilarious volumes ever published. Whether you are gay, straight, or any other flavor of sexuality, these essays are simultaneously true to the core, bitingly and sarcastically witty, and often serious and moving. Dave

Summary: An Eye Opening Experience
Review: My best friend and roommate told me that he is gay about a year ago. Recently he bought this book and I read it to see what someone would have to say about being gay that would take a whole book. It turns out a lot!
This book had me rolling on the floor tears of laughter making it hard to read. My friend read it after I did and we sat and laughed for hours over the humor and truism that MTF has brought to print. I strongly recommend this book for straight people who want to understand, for gay people who need to laugh and for the lot of us who are still drifting trying to find out who we are.

Summary: Buy the Book for the Title...and That Picture...
Review: THAT'S MR. FAGGOT is an essential read for both queer and straight readers. Anyone who can write a book with that name should be given a big kiss. I wasn't disappointed at all. There's something for everyone in this novel: dogs, butches, femmes, cybersex, tennis, toys, and so on and so forth. Ford has a very witty and subtley moralistic way of perceiving and writing about his surroundings. Even though the essays are full of laughs, there's definitely something to be learned from each of them. MR. FAGGOT shows a lighter side of Ford's queer life without completly ignoring the seriousness of it; it proves that we can laugh about our lives, rather than take it too seriously. Without deconstructing it too much, my point is that MR. FAGGOT is a most stimulating read and should be read by everyone, including every Republican right-winger out there...

Summary: Why Michael Thomas Ford Should Love Me...
Review: This book had me laughing from front to back page. I loved it. Now I have a huge crush on MTF, and Roger. I can't wait to read why Mr. Baldwin doesn't love him (and his other 20+ books). Certainly, MTF is a loveable person--this book is a testament to that; he's also funny and smart...what more can you ask for?

Summary: Michael Thomas Ford does it again..
Review: This book is personal and funny, I enjoy the essay format and the hilarious accounts of his life and trials of day to day living. If you enjoyed his other books, you'll love this one too, if you haven't read his other books, what are you waiting for?
