Josh Szeps · The Rich Roll Podcast · Dec 2024 Listen at 2:09:45 The best things said about it
Virtually normal i probably is a book i wrote in 1995 which was basically the first book laying out the arguments for overhauling the gay rights movement and making marriage equality and military service its central features.
But you're exactly right that it was only in the 1980s that Andrew Sullivan wrote about gay marriage.

Why people recommend it
Virtually Normal by Andrew Sullivan is a foundational 1995 text that laid out early conservative and liberal arguments for overhauling the gay rights movement by prioritizing marriage equality and military service. Josh Szeps mentioned the book on The Rich Roll Podcast, praising it as a brilliant work from the nineties that demonstrated how the movement successfully argued for universal human values. Andrew Sullivan himself discussed the grueling writing process on Conversations with Tyler, noting that it was his first major book addressing gay rights and recalling how he celebrated after finishing its cerebral arguments. Additionally, Dave Rubin and Rabbi Wolpe referenced Sullivan's pioneering intellectual contributions on The Rubin Report, acknowledging his early and influential writings regarding gay marriage that fundamentally shaped modern social and political discourse surrounding LGBTQ+ rights and civic equality.
