This a collection of SF short stories arranged around the theme of the Alien, in which the alien is a lesbian or gay man in a straight society treating them as aliens.

My favourite was the leading story, Keith Hartman’s “Sex Guns, and Baptists”, a hard boiled detective story set a generation from now when gene testing and selective abortion has eliminated most gay people. What I like about this story is that it has great world building despite being only 13 pages long.
