Queer (Un)Friendly Film and Television

"Queer (Un)Friendly Film and Television studies the many recent cinematic and small-screen depictions of homosexuality. Each chapter addresses important social issues affecting homosexuals and how those issues are negotiated within contemporary film and television. Among the many topics covered are partnerships, romantic fantasies, child-rearing, violence, cross-dressing, AIDS, the "gay gene," and prostitution.". "The result is a look at how the struggle for gay and lesbian equality, and mainstream America's reaction to that struggle, play out in the contemporary media."--BOOK JACKET.
