Ward's second book Not Gay has received positive reviews from New York Magazine and many other outlets. New York Magazine states "[Ward] shows that homosexual contact has been a regular feature of heterosexual life ever since the concepts of homo- and heterosexuality were first created -- not just in prisons and frat houses and the military, but in biker gangs and even conservative suburban neighborhoods."
As of 2015, Ward is working on a monograph entitled The Failure of Heterosexuality: How Sexism Doomed the World's Most Cherished Union (and Hid the Wreckage).
