"Lesbians in Television and Text after the Millennium" explores
popular contemporary texts featuring lesbian characters, including
"The L Word," "Queer as Folk," "Dykes to Watch Out For, " and
various pornographic videos. Beirne places these works in the
context of political and cultural trends of the post-millennial
period and compares them to cultural representations of lesbians
from the past. Taking up such issues as mainstreaming, feminine
lesbians, the male gaze, female masculinity, and sexual practice,
this book puts forward provocative readings of texts that have been
little explored and offers new insights into the depiction of
lesbians in popular culture.
