Dan Savage on his new book, his hot husband & his son’s coming out

But did he also find time to flirt with our interviewer?

Dan Savage releases his newest book, American Savage: Insights, Slights, and Fights on Faith, Sex, Love, and Politics, on May 28. It promises to be vintage Savage.

In the below interview, Savage talks about the book, the It Gets Better project and his smokin’ hot husband.

He also talks about his son coming out as straight.

“My son had to come out to us as straight, and he was worried what we might think,” Savage says. “We had worked so hard to tell him that he would probably be straight when he grew up because odds are there is a 95 percent chance that he would be straight.”

Watch the video for more. And let us know if you think he was flirting with our interviewer, Peter Knegt. Maybe there is life after marriage and kids?
