Description
"In a society supposedly grown more open and accepting in the wake of Stonewall, women's liberation, and AIDS activism, what can it mean that bisexuality continues to be marginalized by both gay and straight cultures and dismissed as either a phase or, worse, a cop-out? With intimacy and humor, the acclaimed author and activist Jennifer Baumgardner discusses her own experience as a bisexual and the struggle she has undergone to reconcile the privilege she has garnered as a woman who is perceived as straight with the empowerment and satisfaction she's derived from her relationships with women. Part memoir, part pop-culture study, part feminist theory, Look Both Ways is a compelling and current examination of bisexual lives lived secretly and openly and an exploration of the lessons learned by writers, artists, and activists who have refused the either/or paradigm defended by both the gay and straight communities."--P. [4] of cover.
