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 mediaGay youth.Gay youthSuicidal behavior.Youth in mass media.Suicide in mass media.362.28086/642362.28086642Cover Rob1692087MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910808936803321Queer youth suicide, culture and identity4068902UNINA
