Read if you've ever said, "love the sinner; hate the sin"
...I am a straight graduate student in psychology who has spent the last 8 months as a volunteer with a local gay telephone switchboard.I read this book as background for a paper I am writing that attempts to defend adoption by gay/lesbian parents.It covers all the basics - homophobia and its internalization, the coming out process, GLBT relationships, parenting, aging, etc.Each is addressed as a blend of theory with case studies so that the reading is smooth, entertaining and interesting.It is written from a British perspective with an occasional colloquialism, and the appendices are not useful here in the States. A must read for therapists of all sexual hues.

Of societal and institutional discrimination
The homophobic-charged murder of Matthew Shepherd on a cold Wyoming prairie cystalized public awareness and outrage at such an unspeakable act of violence. But the national shame limited its focus on the violence of individuals at the expense of calling attention to the prejudice and discrimination that very much exists on both a societal and institutional basis. This body of work compiled by editors Lacey Sloan and Nora Gustavsson is a wake-up call to redress the socially accepted prejudice that gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered people encounter every day in laws that single them out, workplace harrassment and what is little less than unequal protection under the law. Edited as a scholarly work with a slant toward social and legal policymakers, "Violence and Social Injustice ..." nonetheless speaks to the larger social order in identifying the daily rituals of social and institutional (government agenices, police, workplace, courts) violence that, though so routine that they go virtually unnoticed, cries for social and legal redress. For the lay person and researcher alike, this book may well be the definitive research on the prevalence of social injustice for yet another group of people that social etiquette and public policy have done worse than totally ignore. Both have endorsed and promoted prejudice that, in any society, serves nothing more than to make it weaker. ... Read more

Faderman does it again!
The highly readable Lillian Faderman is the perfect guide to this comprehensive, diverse collection -- which would take the rest of us of a lifetime to find, let alone consume, piece by piece.
A wonderful anthology of lesbian poetry and literature.
Lillian Faderman has done an impressive job of collecting poetic and literary works on lesbian topics and presenting them in the context of the author's lives and the literary climate of they time they were published. This is an invaluable reference for anyone interested in lesbian or women's writings. A must have! ... Read more
