From the Back Cover
The Lesbian Couples' Guide offers an insightful, commonsense exploration into both the practical and emotional dimensions of a lesbian couple in today's society. Lively and accessible, this long-awaited companion will appeal to both single lesbians and couples alike. Written in a personal tone, and interweaving extensive, candid interviews with thorough research and the latest available information, The Lesbian Couples' Guide covers topics including defining ourselves: finding the past, creating the future; opening our own closet doors; setting the boundaries; living together; power issues; parenting; uncoupling; and going long-term.
From Booklist
McDaniel corrals a vast amount of information on lesbian coupling in every sense--emotional, legal, and mundane. Citing the experiences of nine representative couples, she covers a large range of issues, each of which she addresses in the appropriate one of her book's nine parts: "Defining Ourselves," "Lesbians and Sex," "Living as Lesbians," "How We Do It" (i.e., becoming couples), "Living Together," "Parenting," "Power Issues," "Uncoupling," and "Going Long Term." In passing, she considers such essential concerns as sexual styles and safe sex; dealing with the closet; setting boundaries and creating rituals as part of bonding; the legalities of making a home and a life together; lovers who don't have sex; lesbian moms; race, class, body image, and disabilities; lesbian divorce; and aging within long-term relationships. Of necessity, McDaniel explores no single issue in great depth, so her guide may best serve as a jumping-off point for further examination, perhaps in the references and resources listed at the end of each major section.
