Research concerning sexual and gender minority (SGM) health has
flourished in recent years in conjunction with a period of intense
social, political, and legal discourse about SGM persons. While
this attention has increased understanding and recognition of SGM
experiences, recent advances have often been met with resistance
and backlash rooted in social stigma and long histories of
discrimination. This volume of Advances in Medical Sociology
showcases rich theoretical and empirical contributions on SGM
health and wellbeing. The chapters address a variety of topics,
drawing from classic and contemporary sociological frameworks and
constructs, and reflecting intersecting interdisciplinary
approaches to SGM health. Research presented in this volume
provides an in-depth focus on sexual and/or gender minority
populations, as well as the diverse sub-populations within them;
theoretical and empirical explanations for SGM health disparities
and resilience; aging and life course perspectives on the health
experiences of SGM persons; health in the context of critical
relationships in the lives of SGM persons; and the experiences of
seeking general and specialized health care among SGM. The time is
ripe for deeper examinations of the social determinants of SGM
health, and this volume seeks to begin filling existing gaps in the
literature.
