- Description
- This book explores the contexts and implications of homophobia-related violence and hostility. Through research based on in-depth interviews, Gail Mason draws on a range of experiences of verbal hostility, physical violence and sexual violence related to sexuality to ask fundamental questions about where violence comes from and what effects it has. She asks how lesbians and gay men manage the risk of violence. And looks at the relationship between violence and power.
