It highlights how the ways in which we think about queer youth suicide have changed over time and some of the benefits and limitations of current thinking. Drawing on approaches from queer theory, cultural studies and sociology, it explores how sexual identity formation, sexual shame and discrepancies in community belonging and exclusions are implicated in the reasons why some are resilient while others are vulnerable and at risk of suicide.Gay youthGay youthSuicidal behaviorYouth in mass mediaSuicide in mass mediaElectronic books.Gay youth.Gay youthSuicidal behavior.Youth in mass media.Suicide in mass media.362.28086/642362.28086642Cover Rob981232MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451572903321Queer youth suicide, culture and identity2239556UNINA
