Refreshing look at one version of the American families
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
Finally a book looks at debunking the myth that family=heterosexual married Christian middle or upper middle class. Just like we often forget that a family can be just a mother or just a father, it can also be two mothers or two fathers. The author strives to critique our assumptions about family structure, living arrangements, finances, wills, etc. when we are talking about a family that "mainstream" culture ignores or demonizes, kinda like the other reviewer who just had to throw in homophobia into the response. I recommend this book.
