In a series of in-depth interviews, Gloria González-López investigates the ways in which sixty heterosexual Mexican women and men living in Los Angeles reinvent their sex lives as part of their immigration and settlement experiences. Defying a broad spectrum of preconceived notions, these immigrants confirm in their vivid narratives that sexuality-far from being culturally determined-is fluid and complex. González-López explains that these Mexicans enter the United States with particular sexual ideologies and practices that, while diverse, are regulated by family ethics and regional patriarchies. After migration, a range of factors-including employment, the risks and dangers of resettlement, social networking with other immigrants, and the new demands of a fast-paced industrialized metropolis-begin to transform the immigrants' intimate lives in deep and unexpected ways. The remarkably candid interviews show that these men and women are skillful negotiating agents of their own sexuality. The author's incisive analysis of their narratives sets the stage for a nuanced and compelling understanding of this complex topic and its many social implications. 606 $aMexican Americans$xSexual behavior$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles 606 $aImmigrants$xSexual behavior$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles 606 $aMexican Americans$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles$xSocial conditions 606 $aImmigrants$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles$xSocial conditions 606 $aSex$xSocial aspects$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles 607 $aLos Angeles (Calif.)$xSocial conditions 607 $aLos Angeles (Calif.)$xEthnic relations 615 0$aMexican Americans$xSexual behavior 615 0$aImmigrants$xSexual behavior 615 0$aMexican Americans$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aImmigrants$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aSex$xSocial aspects 676 $a306.7/089/68720794 700 $aGonza?lez-Lo?pez$b Gloria$f1960-$01960121 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911103074103321 996 $aErotic journeys$94741250 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03452nam 2200529Ia 450 001 9911136598603321 005 20251116165719.0 010 $a1-59327-111-5 035 $a(CKB)1000000000245335 035 $a(EBL)273509 035 $a(OCoLC)166402026 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000285311 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11248351 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000285311 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10277311 035 $a(PQKB)11162862 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC273509 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL273509 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10118560 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000245335 100 $a20050826d2005 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aVisual Basic 2005 express $enow playing /$fWallace Wang 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aSan Francisco $cNo Starch Press$d2005 215 $a1 online resource (480 p.) 300 $aIncludes index. 311 08$a1-59327-059-3 327 $aPreliminaries; Contents; Chapter 1: Your First Visual Basic Program; Chapter 2: Understanding the Visual Basic Express Interface; Chapter 3: Working with Projects; Chapter 4: Designing a User Interface; Chapter 5: Writing and Editing BASIC Code; Chapter 6: Getting Help; Chapter 7: Understanding Controls and Properties; Chapter 8: Using the Appearance Properties; Chapter 9: Using the Layout and Behavior Properties; Chapter 10: Designing the Windows of a User Interface; Chapter 11: Writing Event Procedures; Chapter 12: Displaying Commands in Buttons and Menus 327 $aChapter 13: Offering Choices with Radio Buttons and BoxesChapter 14: Accepting and Displaying Text in Text Boxes and Labels; Chapter 15: Accepting a Range of Numeric Values; Chapter 16: Designing a Form with Layout Controls; Chapter 17: Displaying Dialog Boxes; Chapter 18: Using Variables and Constants; Chapter 19: Mathematical Operators; Chapter 20: String Manipulation; Chapter 21: Decision-Making Statements; Chapter 22: Repeating Code with Loops; Chapter 23: Data Structures: Structures, Arrays, and Collections; Chapter 24: Advanced Data Structures: Queues, Stacks, and Hash Tables 327 $aChapter 25: Creating Procedures and FunctionsChapter 26: Understanding Object-Oriented Programming; Chapter 27: Comments, Error Handling, and Debugging; Chapter 28: Connecting to Files and Databases; Chapter 29: Printing Data from Your Program; Chapter 30: Adding the Finishing Touches to Your Program; Index 330 $aA beginner's guide to Visual Basic 2005 Express, with a twist-short movies on the CD show exactly how to write programs.
