Having grown up in the south s a gay man myself, this book hit closer to home than any other I had read on the subject in years. Rich's descriptions of family life, church life, mindsets, and beliefs is dead on. And unless a person has grown up in the Bible Belt, it's almost impossible to really describe it to them in full detail and help them understand the feelings a gay man can develop in that region. It's refreshing to see someone be so honest and real, even about his own denial and gut-wrenching struggles with sexuality, drug use, promiscuity, and faith.

Secrets of a Gay Marine Porn Star delved deeply into the heart, soul and mind of a young man who was a student at Bob Jones University, which rejected anything remotely known to have homosexual overtones. Mr. Merritt tells of his stint as a U.S. Marine, his times as a gay porn star, and how he came to reconicle himself in this crazy world of ours. It doesn't matter what you do, but who you are that counts.

This is the book that psycho stalker "jonahcruise" wishes he had the talent to write. Except that his porn star aspirations went limp & according to the men he "served" with, he wasn't a real Marine, either. Even outted himself to keep from being deployed... how patriotic. All he's left with now is selling his aging bod to strangers & selling his fan fiction to tabloids. Pathetic sod. Unlike Merritt, whose story makes a good read & is actually true & verifiable by many.

I was spell-bound. To be from the same city, with much of the same background, it was like looking in the mirror. The first 125 pages or so are my story too. When I meet someone, I always want to know things like "when did you KNOW" and "how did you come out." This book answers those questions and many more, so by the time you hit the back cover, you really feel like you are a comfortable old friend of Rich Merritt! Cudos, Rich!

I had the honor of meeting Rich Merritt back in April 2007 when I attended a conference in New York and found him to be so honest as he is in this book. I had the pleasure of talking with him for my podcast as well - Ramble Redhead and he talked about his family, his experience in the Marines, his porn career and so much more. The interview showed a man who was willing to face his demons and be able to move on in a positive manner.
This book is so amazing and I am so honored to have been able to meet this great author and hope you will read the book!
