Homophobia : The State Of Sexual Bigotry Today

Attribution
Martin Kantor
Publication Details
Book, 2nd ed, Praeger, 2009
Description
Ten years after he first brought us the book Homophobia, which laid bare the harsh realities and harmful effects of this sexual bigotry, psychiatrist Martin Kantor delves again into prejudice and discrimination?even flat-out acts of absolute hatred?against gays in the United States. And gays only longing for a formal relationship a decade ago are now entering into civil unions, even gay marriage, in states that have legalized the ceremonies. Hate crime laws have been revised to include gays, and gays are now recognized in domestic partner clauses common across insurance polices. (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)
