520    From Glee to gay marriage, from lesbian senators to out 
       gay Marines, we have undoubtedly experienced a seismic 
       shift in attitudes about gays in American politics and 
       culture. Our reigning national story is that a new era of 
       rainbow acceptance is at hand. But dig a bit deeper, and 
       this seemingly brave new gay world is disappointing. For 
       all of the undeniable changes, author Walters argues, the 
       plea for tolerance has sabotaged the full integration of 
       gays into American life. Same-sex marriage is unrecognized
       and unpopular in the vast majority of states, hate crimes 
       proliferate, and even in the much vaunted "gay friendly" 
       world of Hollywood and celebrity culture, precious few 
       stars are openly gay. She maintains that we are not 
       "almost there," but on the contrary have settled for a 
       watered-down goal of tolerance rather than a robust claim 
       to full civil rights. After all, one "tolerates" 
       unpleasant realities: medicine with strong side effects, a
       long commute, an annoying relative. Tolerance is not the 
       end goal, but a dead end;.--From publisher description.
