This book provides an understanding of how the legal and cultural
debates and advances and limitations on same-sex marriage are
experienced by gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender (GLBT)
people, same-sex couples, and their social networks. Using data
collected from hundreds of GLBT people, same-sex couples, and their
social networks over the past decade, the book examines the
following topics: same-sex marriages' impact on how GLBT
individuals view their relationships and community; same-sex
couples' decision making regarding whether to marry or not; the
interactions between same-sex couples and members of their
families-of-origin regarding same-sex marriage; the same-sex
marriage experiences of understudied members of the GLBT community;
and the interactions between same-sex couples and members of their
social networks in locations with restrictions against legally
recognized same-sex marriage. These findings are examined through
the lens of the social scientific study of relationships. They are
based on a communication studies perspective on personal
relationships, and therefore emphasize communication concepts and
theories relevant to the understanding of same-sex marriage
experiences.
