Challenging, thought-provoking, often humorous, Bears on Bears is a penetrating study of the gay and bisexual masculine subculture called Bears. Widely excerpted in the GLBTIQ media, this groundbreaking collection of 30 firsthand interviews with 62 men from across the Bear community and around the world.
Contributors comprise a virtual Who’s Who of turn-of-the-century Beardom comedian Bruce Vilanch, "Survivor" Richard Hatch, model Jack Radcliffe, and authors David Bergman, Michael Bronski, Jack Fritscher, Wayne Hoffman, Arnie Kantrowitz, Richard Labonté, Dr. Lawrence Mass, Eric Rofes, Mark Thompson, and Les K. Wright. This revised edition is updated with new interviews with Bear filmmakers Kevin Bowe and Dan Hunt, radio personality Larry Flick, author Jonathan Cohen, and Metropolitan Community Church founder Rev. Troy Perry.
These men examine their furrier side and reveal their experiences as gay and bi men whose personal image and lifestyle were at odds with the stereotypical ephebic, effeminate gay man and fashion-obsessed gay culture, and who found affirmation inside the intimate brotherhood of Bears. Bears on Bears challenges the conventional image of male beauty and contemporary concepts of masculinity in a portrayal of a community that makes for fascinating reading on many levels.

Bears on Bears Interviews & Discussions eBook Ron Jackson Suresha Reviews
I highly recommend this book. Ron Suresha has done a stellar job with this collection. There are so many wonderfully thoughtful perspectives expressed about this subculture of gay, bi, queer and trans men within the book. I think it's also evident that the more dominant groups of bears don't listen very much to the marginal groups of bears and their admirers which is unfortunate but it's a an honest reflection of the reality. The only criticism I have is the inclusion of people like Richard Hatch and Andrew Sullivan who really don't need any more publicity. Otherwise, this is a great book for the subject.
