This book offers a close and clear-eyed look into a form this change has taken most recently, the lesbian coparent family. Based on intensive interviews and extensive firsthand observation, The Family of Woman chronicles the experience of thirty-four families headed by lesbian mothers whose children were conceived by means of donor insemination.With its intimate perspective on the interior dynamics of these families and its penetrating view of their public lives, the book provides rare insight into the workings of emerging family forms and their significance for our understanding of "family"-and our culture itself.Lesbian mothersUnited StatesCase studiesChildren of gay parentsUnited StatesCase studiesSex roleUnited StatesCase studiesChildren of lesbianshomoithttps://homosaurus.org/v4/homoit0000259Lesbian parentshomoithttps://homosaurus.org/v4/homoit0000752LGBTQ+ co-parentshomoithttps://homosaurus.org/v4/homoit0000840Lesbian mothersChildren of gay parentsSex roleChildren of lesbians.Lesbian parents.LGBTQ+ co-parents.306.874/3/08664Sullivan Maureen1963-1843583MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910974773803321The family of woman4425126UNINA
