Despite enormous changes in patterns of dating and courtship in
twenty-first-century America, contemporary understandings of
romance and intimacy remain firmly rooted in age-old assumptions of
gender difference. These tenacious beliefs now vie with cultural
messages of gender equality that stress independence,
self-development, and egalitarian practices in public and private
life. Through interviews with heterosexual and LGBTQ individuals,
Ellen Lamont's The Mating Game explores how people with diverse
sexualities and gender identities date, form romantic
relationships, and make decisions about future commitments as they
negotiate uncertain terrain fraught with competing messages about
gender, sexuality, and intimacy.
