great journal articles on the subject
20 Feb 2012
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This collection of articles is really fantastic and gives great insights into a topic that tends to be ignored by many. It highlights what members of a sexual minority go through mentally, physically and psychologically to be who and what they are in life. The insights offered are very telling and provided lots of useful intelligence for a paper i am writing for a conference.
