A critical examination of the relationship of law and sexual
orientation in the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada.
Law is one of the primary means through which lesbian and gay male
sexuality is constructed, monitored and controlled. This text
exposes the connection through an exploration of key questions of
current interest and controversy. The author examines the
motivations behind legal restrictions and their impact both upon
sexual sub-cultures and dominant society. The book tackles the
areas of controversy that have erupted in the 1980s and the 1990s:
public funding restrictions on "homoerotic art"; sodomy laws; the
regulation of safe sex educational materials; gay pornography and
feminist theory; lesbians and gay men in the American military;
sadomasochism and the law; and legal restrictions on the
"promotion" of homosexuality. The author concludes with an
examination of the challenges posed by the newly emerging queer
identities and the likely direction of future struggles.
