Altogether, I thought it was a solid and fascinating anthology. Themes not touched on here included the construction of manliness, and what we should be teaching teens about sex. (Actually, Latoya's article touches on that some, but other essays centralize that.) There's also quite a bit about how to define consent.
I'm sad to say that I didn't realize it was by Seal Press until after I already had it -- I'd seen it rec'ed through Racialicious and TransGriot, and thus didn't even think to check. However, I had already determined that about a third of the contributors were women of color, so at least that habit served.
