Description
Summary:The Journal of Homosexuality has been an important venue for disseminating information on lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) issues of many types, but historically, submissions have been more often related to the humanities, including theory and literary criticism; and social sciences such as psychological and sociological studies of sexual orientation and gender identity. This special issue of the Journal of Homosexuality offers a diverse sampling of the types of health research being conducted today, including qualitative studies of the effects of adult surveillance of queer youth with intellectual disabilities on inhibiting their sexual exploration and examining how lesbian and bisexual women define health.
