Lesbian images are everywhere these days-cable television, film,
popular magazines, advertising, Internet and the news-creating
desire in men and women alike, selling commercial products and
services, and stirring up controversy on many levels. But do these
images truly represent the diverse identities of women-centered
women worldwide? This book addresses the limited access to images
of diverse and international lesbian identities and experiences, in
order to provide the reader with a more complete understanding of
what it means to be lesbian in a global context. It investigates
how lesbians portray themselves as well as how they are portrayed
by others in several areas of popular culture, including
television, film, the arts, Internet, advertising and the news. It
features articles on U.S. lesbian cartoonists, Canadian viewer
perceptions of lesbians on the cable show Queer as Folk, panoramic
looks at lesbians' representation in Australian and Spanish
television programming, and in-depth explorations of films by
Spanish director Pedro Almodovar, leading Indian film producers,
and independent Chinese-American filmmakers. This book was
published as a special issue of the Journal of Lesbian Studies.
