Matthew Todd, author and editor of Attitude magazine discusses his new book Straight Jacket – How to be Gay and Happy.

Straight Jacket is part-memoir, part-revolutionary guide for the LGBT community on how to build happy, secure lives and relationships, it looks beneath the shiny façade of contemporary gay culture and asks if gay people are as happy as they could be – and if not, why not?

Matthew will be interviewed by journalist and broadcaster Sheena McDonald.

Join us to hear about his time at Attitude magazine, the background to writing his book and a discussion about the issues tackled within Straight Jacket which affect LGBT people across the UK.

“Though increasing numbers of young people spring out of the closet with confidence, many of us still live with the emotional scars of growing up hated.” Matthew Todd
