Reviews
"Nothing has been written about this subject. Our lack of comfort with the body and sexuality in this culture is manifest in an ignorance about sexual practices. Both our assumptions and our ignorance about heterosexual intimacy are rampant. How much less we actually know about gay and lesbian sexuality and how much more we assume about it mirror the heterosexism and homophobia in our culture. This book both adds knowledge and, perhaps more important, contributes to the discourse about sexuality and sexual identity."--Arlene Avakian, University of Massachusetts, Amherst

Synopsis
For decades the term "Boston marriage" was used to describe single women who lived together and shared their lives. The presumption then was that these partnerships were nonsexual. In recent years, however, the opposite assumption has prevailed, causing some women involved in such relationships to hide the asexual nature of their attachments in the lesbian community. Convinced that Boston marriages are both legitimate and important, Esther D. Rothblum and Kathleen A. Brehony argue that in a society that defines intimacy by the occurrence of sexual activity, we have no word for--and thus no understanding of--the intensely romantic but asexual relationships that some lesbians form. By bringing these relationships "out of the closet" and discussing them openly, the editors and other contributors to this volume challenge our views about lesbianism and address larger questions concerning the construction of sexuality and sexual identity. How, for example, do we define a lesbian relationship? What constitutes a romantic involvement? If a couple does not engage in sex, are they still considered lovers? This book includes ten personal accounts by women involved in Boston marriages as well as theoretical essays by Lillian Faderman, Marnie Hall, JoAnn Loulan, Suzanna Rose, Debra Zand, Marie Cini, and Laura Brown., Boston marriage was first used to describe single women living together, with the presumption that their liaisons were non-sexual. The authors argue that in a sexually preoccupied society, we have no understanding of the intensely romantic but asexual friendships formed by some lesbians., This collection of theoretical essays and personal stories is not just about "Boston marriages," a term referring to two women in a nonsexual but nonetheless deeply committed relationship. As the book so well concludes, there is no language for this type of relationship, not just for lesbians but for anyone--gay, straight, male, or female--who relates to others outside the traditional roles of friend, lover, spouse, or relative. Living in a society that invalidates a love that has not been sexually validated, the women subjects of this book speak passionately about relationships they have kept hidden even from their own lesbian community; the essays by well-known writers in the area of lesbian studies pale in comparison. This book's apparently specific nature should not deter academics and others interested in the study of human relationships. For academic libraries and women's studies collections.

- i***- (25)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufI have received this order a few days ago, well before the earliest promised delivery date. The item corresponds to the seller's description: it is in "like new" condition. The transaction was seamless.I am completely satisfied with this purchase. The only peculiar aspect is that I wrote to the seller several times, both before and after ordering, and never received a response. This is at odds with all reviews of this seller.Statutory Interpretation [University Casebook Series] [ Nelson, Caleb E. ] Used (Nr. 405725878001)

Very good price. Seller was very accurate in describing the condition of the book --very good-- in his listing.. I am picky about a book's condition, and I would rate the book as between "very good' and "like new." Very satisfied customer. ...Thank you!!
