- Description
- The central argument of this book is that, although love is a crucial site of gendered power asymmetries, it is also a vital source of human empowerment that we cannot live without. Instead of emphasizing 'either-or', the book puts the dualities of love center stage. By offering various theoretical perspectives on what makes love such a central value and motivator for people, this title will increase one’s understanding as to why love can keep people in its grip, even when practiced in ways that deplete and oppress. The contributions within the book present new perspectives on the conditions and characteristics of non-oppressive, mutually enhancing ways of loving.

- Description
- The purpose of this volume of essays is to address contemporary dilemmas surrounding the regulation of sexuality. The contributors to this book seek to address complex political questions , including: Is the pursuit of marital rights the best means to attain erotic freedom for gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals? Should the flourishing of the international sex trade demand a different state response than other sectors of the expanding global economy? How can we simultaneously empower and protect children in the course of their erotic decision-making? The volume concludes with a discussion of new directions for theorizing about and advocating for sexual justice.

- The Accrediting Council of Educators in Journalism and Mass Communications (ACEJMC) recently added sexual orientation to its revised diversity standards. This means that journalism schools seeking accreditation or re-accreditation must develop a curriculum that fosters an understanding of issues and perspectives that is inclusive in terms of gender, race, ethnicity and sexual orientation. News and Sexuality is a practical teaching tool that will help educators meet these new accreditation standards by addressing these complex and often controversial issues, providing additional resources, discussion questions, suggested homework assignments, and a glossary of terms.

- Description
- Within the EU, there is considerable diversity on morally sensitive issues, such as the legal recognition of same-sex relationships or reproductive matters (abortion, assisted reproduction, surrogacy, etc.). States generally express recognition of such diversity and it is explicitly respected at the European level, even though the (implicit) influence of European law is increasingly visible in these areas. Cross-border movement within the EU adds a new dimension to this complex picture. Member States are increasingly confronted by one another's regimes. For example, same-sex couples who reside in one Member State claim the recognition of their marriage conducted in another State, or women from Member States with restrictive abortion regimes resort to States with more liberal regimes. This PhD thesis explores these cross-border dimensions by identifying a number of pressing questions and providing insight into the interests that are at stake in such situations.

- Description
- Abortion, pornography, gay marriage, homosexuality, and HIV are a few in a long line of issues that have erupted into panics. These sexual panics spark moral crusades and campaigns, defining how we think about sexual and reproductive rights. The essays in this book focus on case studies ranging from sex education to AIDS to race and the 'down low,' to illustrate how sexuality is at the heart of many political controversies. The contributors also reveal how moral and sexual panics have become a mainstay of certain kinds of conservative efforts to win elections and gain power in moral, social, and political arenas. The authors provide new insights into the role that key moral panics have played in social processes, arguing against the political abuse of sex panics and for the need to defend full sexual and reproductive rights.

- Since the 1990s, gay and lesbian civil rights organizations have increasingly focused on the right of same-sex couples to marry, which represents a major change from earlier activists’ rejection of the institution. Centering on the everyday struggles, feelings, and thought of marriage equality activists, This book explores this shift and its connections to the transformation of the United States from a welfare state to a neo-liberal one in which families carry the burden of facing social problems.

- Description
- This book looks at similar and distinct roles mothers and fathers play in their children's lives and measures the effect of gendered parenting on child well-being, work and family arrangements, and the quality of couples' relationships.Contributors describe what happens to brains and bodies when women become mothers and men become fathers: whether the stakes are the same or different for each sex: why, across history and cultures, women are typically more involved in childcare than men: why some fathers are strongly present in their children's lives while others are not: and how the various commitments men and women make to parenting shape their approaches to paid work and romantic relationships. Considering recent changes in men's and women's familial duties, the growing number of single-parent families, and the impassioned tenor of same-sex marriage debates, this book adds sound scientific and theoretical insight to these issues, constituting a standout resource for those interested in the causes and consequences of contemporary gendered parenthood.

- This special issue of the 'Radical History Review' presents a selection of essays of scholars and activists who engage with critique of the so called 'homonormativity'. The authors demonstrate that the politics of 'homonormativity' does not contest dominant heteronormative assumptions and institutions but upholds and sustains them. They examine the historical processes that have normalized queerness over the past few decades. They ask what the mainstreaming of LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender)/queer cultures and political activism will mean for queer futures.

- Description
- The author discusses the arguments of conservative Christians against same-sex marriage.Focusing primarily on texts produced by Focus on the Family (an American organization informing conservative Christian culture), the author identifies two ideas of male homosexuality. He argues that: these homosexualities enable a complex ideal of Christian masculinity in which men are encouraged to be assertive toward the world while also being submissive toward God and family: these sexual contradiction influence the flow of power between the sexes and within the state: it joins notions of sexual equality to claims of 'natural' difference: heterosexual union is then treated as emblematic of the success of American political life. The author finally connects the desire for stability to the conservative Christian movement's strategies of political power.

- What international family law is ‘necessary for the proper functioning of the internal market’? An analysis of international family law within the European Union from a multidisciplinary approach was needed to tackle this central theme. Articles 61c and 65 of the EC Treaty expressly place civil judicial cooperation in the perspective of the proper functioning of the internal market and thus appear to grant it a distinct ‘economic’ flavour. Still, the link between civil cooperation and family law on the one hand and economic integration on the other hand, is not self-evident. A key question today is to what extent and according to what framework the European legislator can and should act in the field of international family law.

This collection of classic articles explores that legal interest, while at the same time locating marriage and cohabitation within a range of intimate affiliations. It offers the perspectives of a number of international scholars on questions of how, if at all, our different ways of intimacy ought to be recognised and regulated by law.

- This book explores the impact that recent seismic shifts in the legal landscape have had for lesbians and gay men. The last decade has been a time of extensive change in the legal regulation of lesbian and gay lives in Britain, Canada and the US. Almost every area that the law impacts on sexuality has been reformed or modified. These legal developments combine to create a new, uncharted terrain for lesbians and gay men.Through an analysis of their attitudes, views and experiences, this book explores the effects of these developments. Drawing on the concept of ‘legal consciousnessthe book focuses on four different ‘texts’: qualitative responses to a large-scale online survey of lesbians’ and gay men’s views about the legal recognition of same sex relationships: published auto/biographical narratives about being and becoming a lesbian or gay parent: semi-structured, in-depth, interviews with lesbians and gay men about relationship recognition, parenting, discrimination and equality: and fictional utopian texts.

- The book begins in the 1950s, when gays and lesbians were criminals, psychiatrists saw them as mentally ill, churches saw them as sinners, and society victimized them with hatred. Against this dark backdrop, a few people began to fight back, paving the way for the revolutionary changes of the 1960s and beyond. Faderman discusses the protests in the 1960s: the counter reaction of the 1970s and early eighties: the decimated but united community during the AIDS epidemic: and the current hurdles for the right to marriage equality.

- In recent years, there has been substantial progress on LGBTQ civil rights in the United States. We are now in a time of incredible political uncertainty for queer people. This book provides an introduction to mainstream LGBTQ movements in the US, illustrating the many forms that LGBTQ activism has taken since the mid-twentieth century. The book covers a range of topics, including the Stonewall uprising and gay liberation, AIDS politics, queer activism, marriage equality fights and bisexual and transgender justice. Stulberg explores how marginalized communities have used a wide range of political and cultural tools to create change. The five key themes that guide the book are assimilationism and liberationism as strategies for equality, the possibilities of legal change, the role of art and popular culture in social change, the interconnectedness of social movements and the role of privilege in movement organizing.

Though the options and freedoms for LGBTQ+ people living in the West are greater than ever before, the question is at what cost this acceptance has come and who is left behind, particularly where LGBTQ+ rights are not enough promoted and supported. The author searches for answers to these challenges as well as to the broader question of what it means to be queer in 2019 worldwide. To illustrate this she describes her emotions at the first same-sex marriage in Britain, her experiences at both the world's biggest drag queen festival in Los Angeles and Pride parades across Europe and her visit to a transgender model agency.

- This book explores the essence of the institution of marriage: what is the meaning of marriage today, how has marriage been influenced by the legal recognition of new cohabitation models, and what should be the role of the institution of marriage in the future? In order to understand what marriage is in the 21st century, it is necessary to analyze the formalities and function of marriage in society. With a focus on Sweden, the book examines the historical development of marriage, beginning as a 'gift from God' and now being a gender-neutral institution - from a legal and political perspective. The book then makes comparative assessments concerning the legal and political developments leading toward the adoption of gender-neutral marriage concepts in the Netherlands and Spain. The significance of the marital status under European Union law is explored, under the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and in the jurisprudence of the European Court of Justice.

They highlight how marriage as an institution has been shaped not just by law and society but also by individual and community choices, desires and emotional values.

In this book, issued by a christian publisher, such reasons are offered. Arguing against same-sex marriage and parenting in Marriage on Trial, the authors draw on current social science research to offer clear and cogent answers to the questions at the center of the debate.

- This book examines the nature of sex and racial identities. Warnke argues that identities are interpretations and have more in common with textual understanding than we commonly acknowledge. People are neither always, or only, black or white, men or women or males or females. Rather, all identities have a restricted scope and can lead to injustices and contradictions when they are employed beyond that scope. In concluding her argument, Warnke considers the legal and policy implications that follow for affirmative action, childbearing leave, the position of gays in the military and marriage between same-sex partners.

- Description
- This collection brings together eleven essays--eight previously published and three new--that document the evolving relationship between academic feminism and political feminism as Freedman has studied and lived it. .Following an introduction that presents a map of the personal and intellectual trajectory of Freedman's work, the first section of essays, on the origins and strategies of women's activism in U.S. history, reiterates the importance of valuing women in a society that has long devalued their contributions. The second section, on the maintenance of sexual boundaries, explores the malleability of both sexual identities and sexual politics. Underlying the collection is an inquiry into the changing meanings of gender, sexuality, and politics during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries along with a concern for applying the insights of women's history broadly, from the classroom to the courthouse

- Description
- Koppelman describes legal solutions to problems that arise when gay couples cross state borders. Drawing on historical precedents in which states held radically different moral views about marriage (for example, between kin, very young individuals, and interracial couples), he argues which state laws should govern in specific situations as gay couples travel or move from place to place.

- Description
- The LGBT movement is on one of the most activen and engaging social movements in the world. This book advocates for LGBT rights in the U.S. to aspire beyond the narrow framework of equality. It outlines a more substantive politics with race, class, and gender at its foundation, and suggests that such a politics will produce greater and more meaningful change for a larger number of people. The book turns an experienced and thoughtful lens onto many common controversies, rhetoric, and strategic questions that face contemporary social change movements: pursuit of broad or narrow agendas, integration of economic and racial justice, integrating sexual orientation and gender identity in human rights frameworks, the persistence of sexism, the dilemmas of bipartisanship, and the challenge of seeing beyond the short term to secure gains made for the long run.

- The author spent over a decade interviewing and observing families in California, South Africa, and China for this portrait of family diversity across three continents and cultures. The first section is devoted to gay men living, loving, and parenting in tony West Hollywood. Stacey uses the experiences of her 50 subjects to examine both sides of the gay-marriage debate. The theory that legalizing gay marriage will lead to the legalization of polygamy takes Stacey to South Africa, where both same-sex and plural marriages are legal. She examines the history and modern interpretation of polygamy and asks if the practice might not offer some potential benefits to women and their children. Finally, Stacey turns her keen analysis on the Mosuo people of southwest China, who have rejected marriage for multigenerational households in which children are raised by their mothers and maternal family. Throughout her travels and exhaustive research, Stacey calls into question everything we think we know about love, marriage, and the baby in the baby carriage

- Description
- Mohr's nuanced case for legal and social acceptance applies widely held ethical principles to various issues, including same-sex marriage, AIDS, and gays in the military. Mohr counters moralistic and religious arguments regularly invoked to keep gay men and women from achieving the same rights as heterosexuals. He examines the nature of prejudices and other cultural forces that work against lesbian and gay causes and considers the role that sexuality plays in the national rituals by which Americans define themselves. In his support of same-sex marriage, Mohr defines matrimony as the development and maintenance of intimacy through the means by which people meet their basic needs and carry out their everyday living. Mohr contends that this definition, in both its legal and moral sense, applies equally to homosexual and heterosexual couples. .Mohr also considers gays and lesbians as community members as he explores the prospect for greater legal and social inclusion.

- Description
- Over the past 30 years, the gay rights movement has moved from the margins to the center of American politics, sparking debate from bedroom to boardroom to battlefield. This book analyzes the most recent gay rights cases, and explores the complex relationship between litigation and social change. Andersen describes what happens when these cases---many overseen by the Lambda Legal Defense Fund, the nation's oldest and largest gay rights defense firm---enter the courtroom, and explains why they have met with mixed success. .The book explores both the promise and the limits of using legal mobilization to effect social change. Crossing disciplinary boundaries, Ellen Andersen draws on the accumulated knowledge of political science, law, and sociology to explain the origins and outcomes of gay rights litigation.

- Description
- The author argues that selected ideals of Christian marriage have come to dominate recent debates over same-sex unions. He describes that there has never been a stable Christian tradition of marriage across millennia. He argues that Christian churches will have to decide for themselves whether to bless same-sex unions and that queer Christians will have to discover for themselves what they really want out of marriage: legal recognition as a couple, a place at the social table, the blessing of God or just a white wedding.
