  • General Editor's Introduction
    General Editor’s Introduction PAISLEY CURRAH n the last decade, movements for transgender equality appear to have advanced I with astonishing speed, while other issues of concern to women’s movements have largely stalled, either making little progress (equal pay) or suffering real set- backs (abortion access). From policy reforms to public opinion trends, it seems that the situation has changed faster, and in a more positive direction, on issues char- acterized as “transgender rights” than it has on those understood as “women’s rights.” This apparent gap may be exacerbated in the United States: at the con- clusion of the culture wars of the last forty years, the almost inseparable bond between movements for sexual and gender freedom that marked liberationist discourse of the 1970s has been torn asunder, reconstituted through the logic of an identity politics that affirms the demands for recognition of sexual and gender minorities but finds the misogyny that still structures all women’s lives largely unintelligible, outside the scope of the liberal project of inclusion. One poll, for example, found that 72 percent of the millennial generation in the United States favor laws banning discrimination against transgender people—a proportion very close to the 73 percent who support protections for gay and lesbian people. But only 55 percent of this generation, born between 1980 and 2000, say abortion should be legal in all (22 percent) or some (33 percent) cases (Jones and Cox 2015: 42, 3). In a three-month period ending July 31, 2015, when this introduction was written, the New York Times editorial board came out in support of transgender issues seven times—and that number does not include the several almost uni- versally positive op-ed contributions published during the same period.

I engage with feminist discourses around lesbian SM within the so- called feminist sex wars of the 1980s, tracing the sometimes dramatic rise to prominence of lesbian SM as a feminist issue. Entwined in this web of controversy, I assert, is the story of a perceived fundamental split in the feminist movement between those who believed SM was patriarchal, abusive and violent, and those who saw it as a consensual expression of sexual freedom and liberation.

I thank my committee, the Department of Political Science, the Center for Women’s Studies and Gender Research, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and the Graduate School at the University of Florida for giving me the opportunity, financial support, and intellectual freedom to follow my curiosity wherever it led. I thank my undergraduate teacher and mentor, Art Vanden Houten, for introducing me to Catharine MacKinnon’s Toward A Feminist Theory of the State and, inadvertently, the sex wars when I was a student in his Contemporary Political Thought course at Flagler College in the spring of 2003. Finally, I thank my wife, Paola Aguirre, my friends and colleagues, Mauro Carracioli, Alec Dinnin, Billy Kelly, Jessica Lancia, Manu Samnotra, and Seaton Tarrant, my parents, Lana and Michael Bracewell, and my sister, Amy Wenditz, for listening patiently, sharing generously, and forgiving readily when I neglected my most important obligations for the sake of this comparatively inconsequential project. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ...............................................................................................................4

  • Movements and Memory: the Making of the Stonewall Myth
    Movements and Memory: The Making of the Stonewall Myth Elizabeth A. Armstrong Suzanna M. Crage Indiana University, Bloomington Indiana University, Bloomington This article examines why the Stonewall riots became central to gay collective memory while other events did not. It does so through a comparative-historical analysis of Stonewall and four events similar to it that occurred in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York in the 1960s. The Stonewall riots were remembered because they were the first to meet two conditions: activists considered the event commemorable and had the mnemonic capacity to create a commemorative vehicle. That this conjuncture occurred in New York in 1969, and not earlier or elsewhere, was a result of complex political developments that converged in this time and place. The success of the national commemorative ritual planned by New York activists depended on its resonance, not only in New York but also in other U.S. cities. Gay community members found Stonewall commemorable and the proposed parade an appealing form for commemoration. The parade was amenable to institutionalization, leading it to survive over time and spread around the world. The Stonewall story is thus an achievement of gay liberation rather than an account of its origins. n the evening of June 27, 1969, New York sexual bar in Greenwich Village.

  • Sex Therapy with Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgendered and “Kinky”
    Margaret Nichols, Ph.D. Director Sex Therapy with Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgendered, and “Kinky” 1 INTRODUCTION All psychotherapy is bound by history and geography, and perhaps none is more constrained by these forces than counseling done with members of special subgroups of the culture at large. The therapist must interpret the client’s personal experience through the lens of a social context that is different from and perhaps alien to his or her own. She must be an anthropologist and sociologist as well as a psychologist/therapist. Many sex therapists are already accustomed to receiving referrals of lesbian and gay clients, and previous editions of this book included chapters designed to familiarize counselors with gay issues . However, as we enter the millenium, there is an increasing tendency for the gay and lesbian community to include within its boundaries bisexuals, transgendered people, and people who practice forbidden sex acts, especially the many varieties of dominant/submissive sex : those individuals that the mainstream of society considers "the garbage heap of sex and gender trash" (Califia, 1997.) Thus the updated version of this chapter reflects the growth and changes what many now call the "queer" community – a title change that emphasizes the non-mainstream element of all its members. Although this chapter primarily describes sexual minorities within a large urban/suburban setting, it is still relevant to more rural or mid-American locations. Eventually, New York and West Coast urban cultural phenomenon trickle out to the rest of the United States, at least within this community. And even individuals who do not consider themselves to be "members" of a sexual minority community cannot help but be influenced by its mores.
