No it's not just Judy Gay men love not only the MGM film but other stories set in Oz--the original books, more recent books with Oz themes and settings, and stage and screen productions like The Wiz. In Friends of Dorothy, based on interviews with more than one hundred gay Oz fans, Dee Michel explains the enduring appeal of Oz for gay men and boys. Interviewees include Gregory Maguire (Wicked), Robert Sabuda (the pop-up Wizard of Oz), and William Mann (Kate: The Woman Who Was Hepburn). The book also tackles the long-taboo topic of gay boys, examining their feelings about escaping to Oz, the characters they identify with, and the psychological and spiritual uses they make of stories set in Oz. The many voices in Friends of Dorothy, along with extensive research and analysis, provide a richly layered look at the allure of Oz, with insights into gay culture, gay psychology, and gay folklore.

A Big Help for Dry Skin
This helps so much with my dry skin, especially on my hands. I’ve noticed I need to use lotion much less often throughout the day.

Amazing for dermatitis.
Please never stop making this soap. Not only is it so soothing but it cleansed and balances my PH all over! No irritation very effective. Clean ingredients. Usually, I have to choose between moisture and fully feeling clean. This does both! Lathers and moisturizes. Great size and amazing price. I’m so glad I stumbled upon it. I will be ordering more. I recommend it. Soothes, moisturizes, balances ur skins natural PH and CLEANSES! No fake fragrance, all natural. I strongly recommend

Smells wonderful
I purchased this for my granddaughter. She has eczema on her upper arms. It smells great and lathers up very quickly. It does moisturize the skin too. I will update once we see if it takes care of her eczema. Definitely would buy again.
