Publisher Description

The birth of Ernie G. came in March of 1996 with Ernesto Tomas Gritzewsky's first pro gig at the Eastside Comedy Jam in Alhambra, California. He then became a Latino Comedy Night regular at the Laugh Factory in Hollywood and appeared at his first Latino Comedy Olympics show at the World Famous Improv. After 20 weeks of playing to standing-room-only crowds, Ernie moved on to the Comedy Store, where he opened for Paul Rodriguez and Culture Clash in the Main Room for La Fiesta USA and co-hosted La Fiesta LA in the Original Room.

Gritzewsky is the first person from his Mexican, American, Puerto Rican, Russian, and French family to graduate from college. In 1994, he graduated from Loyola Marymount University with a B.A. degree in psychology and a minor in Chicano Studies.

"I cannot recommend this book more highly for those of us parenting boys. This book is a breath of fresh air and contains good evidence to support the ungendered raising of modern men. Lombardi calls out the dated, homophobic US culture and inspires us to look at our boys differently."

    " I thought there would be more stories, anecdotes, interviews and less repetition of the same small studies. Couldn't even finish the 1st chapter. "

    " Mamas of the world--it is healthy to keep your sons close. The closeness helps create healthly young men. "

    " As a single mother of 3 sons (14,13 and 6yrs old), I found some comfort in this book knowing that it's ok to have great relationships with my sons. I play the dad role as well and sometimes question my mothering closeness. This was a great read for me! "

    " Important topic - undermined by pointless repetition & sermonizing. "

    " Made a good article, but not enough meat for a book. Anecdotal evidence just seemed to repeat. "

    " I liked the concepts, but felt it was not well written - too much repetition, chapters seemed disorganized. "

    " This book felt really padded--like it might have made a decent long article--and didn't really speak to me. I am aware of some of the cultural forces she discusses but they didn't resonate with me in my life. Good to know there's one hang-up I don't have. "

    " This would have been perfectly fine as an essay in a magazine. Too much fluff to fill out a book. "
