Recenzii

"Thinking Straight is a valuable contribution to critical heterosexual studies, that difficult work of keeping different-sex sexualities in social and historical focus as it questions all those traditional assumptions about heterosexuality's natural, normal, universal, and eternal character." -- Jonathan Ned Katz, author of The Invention of Heterosexuality
