Married Women Who Love Women: Second Edition

The discovery of same sex attractions within oneself is a life-altering occurrence that is even more so for someone in a heterosexual marriage. Married Women Who Love Women, Second Edition, is the updated edition of the classic about this under-discussed topic that includes a new introduction, new chapters on single lovers of married women, redefined marriages, and the labels of lesbian or bisexual, a glossary of gay-related terms, and a new list of additional reading. Sociologist-Author Carren Strock interviewed dozens of married women, husbands, children, friends, lovers, and therapists to update and reveal the challenges, opportunities, and consequences in the surprisingly common occurrence of being married and attracted to other women.
