The Marrying Kind?: Debating Same-Sex Marriage within the Lesbian and Gay Movement

A look inside the lesbian and gay movement’s disagreements over same-sex marriage

The Marrying Kind? draws on empirical research to examine same-sex marriage debates within the LGBT movement and how they are affecting marriage equality campaigns. The contributors analyze the rhetoric, strategies, and makeup of the LGBT organizations pushing for same-sex marriage, and address the dire predictions of some LGBT commentators that same-sex marriage will spell the end of queer identity and community.
