Reviews
"Combining the perspectives and methods of social work, counseling, and gerontology, this thorough examination details what characterizes long-term gay and lesbian couples.... Academic libraries collecting gender studies, psychology, and social work will be the most interested in this book..." Library Journal, "[T]his study offers an essential preliminary view of the dynamics in lasting gay and lesbian relationships and is likely to be an abundant source of ideas for future research." Journal of Marriage and the Family, "The book is a solid, careful, and respectful contribution to the literature." Feminism, Community, and Communication, "Strengths of the book include its ability to look at gay and lesbian coupling from a non-heterosexist perspective.... [T]he book is easy to read and flows quite comfortably." The Lesbian Review of Books, "...a useful reference for a therapist who knows little about working with gay or lesbian clients in commited relationships. Lay people interested in learning about these relationships might also be interested in the information presented here." Archives of Sexual Behavior

Synopsis
The voices in this book come from the stories of gay and lesbian partners who talk about their struggles over the years in building a life together. The stories reach beyond the obvious realities of sexual orientation to speak to the joys, sorrows, hopes, and fears of human beings who are committed to making their relationships work. Based on a life-span perspective, in-depth interviews of people whose relationships have lasted more than 15 years explored how partners adapted over the years. Each interview consisted of questions that focused upon dimensions of these relationships over time from the unique perspective of each partner. They were asked about conflict over the years, decision-making styles, ways of working out roles, the importance of social supports, and sexual and psychological intimacy. The research upon which the book is based has continuity with the authors' earlier work on lasting relationships among heterosexual couples, including Lasting Marriages: Men and Women Growing Together (Praeger, 1995). Compared to marriages, relatively little research has been done on the development of same sex relationships. This book will be of great interest to all researchers and students of gender differences, marriage and family therapy, human sexuality, and interpersonal relationships.

- p***l (1252)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseCarefully packaged for shipping. The Vendor kept me posted regarding the delivery of these terrific trousers. They are even cuter than described and the photographs showed. And what a deal! These capris look like a million bucks, but I paid a teeny-tiny fraction of a million $’s. I like the button detail on the pockets. A neat touch.
