Explore the broad range of healthy lesbian attitudes and behaviors
in love, friendship, self-image, and society This pioneering book
makes a revolutionary assumption: that lesbian and bisexual women
are normal, if not average. Instead of focusing on which family or
genetic quirks might produce lesbians, these studies turn attention
to describing the healthy ways lesbians interact with each other,
with heterosexual women, and with society. The result is a
significant exploration of uncharted territory.Lesbian Love and
Relationships examines the lives of lesbian and bisexual women from
adolescence to old age, addressing issues of class and race as well
as sexual orientation. It encompasses theory, empirical research,
and memoir on such diverse topics as physical appearance,
cross-generational friendships, butch-femme issues, and lesbian
sexuality. It also looks at such difficult and painful issues as
lesbian domestic violence and the impact of homophobia on lesbian
couples.Lesbian Love and Relationships asks personal, political,
and psychological questions, including: how do young lesbians find
each other? what makes successful lesbian relationships last? how
does social class affect African-American lesbian relationships?
what was it like growing up lesbian in the South during World War
II? does "lesbian bed death" exist?This compendium offers exciting
original research in a neglected field. Lesbian Love and
Relationships is an essential resource for anyone interested in
women 's lives and sexuality as well as scholars in the field.
