Violence Against Lesbians and Gay Men is the first book to reveal
the shocking problem of anti-gay/lesbian violence. Beginning with
an overview of the emergence of lesbian and gay neighbourhoods in
major U.S. cities after World War II, Comstock describes how the
increased visibility of lesbians and gay men was followed by
physical attacks that were illegal but socially sanctioned. He
presents results of his survey on present-day violence and then
studies the perpetrators, using information supplied by survey
participants as well as reports from the media, court records, and
personal interviews. Finally, Comstock proposes a sociological
explanation for the fact that adolescent males are the group most
prone to violence against lesbians and gay men.
