Promising Futures for LGBT Youth: Reviewing Lesbian and Gay Couples

Abstract

In Lesbian and Gay Couples: Lives, Issues, and Practice, Ski Hunter presents us with an engaging and thought-provoking text through her writing on lesbian and gay relationships in the 21st century. Her book captures a key moment in the global struggle for the recognition of same-sex couples and sexual rights, one in which new sexual histories can be made and drawn on to inform understandings of, and for, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) youth.
