News reports of anti-gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgendered violence, especially the media coverage of the brutal murders of Teena Brandon and Matthew Shepard, leave us feeling hopeless. We're Here! We're Queer! Get Used to Us! Survival Strategies for a Hostile World provides an antidote to this sense of hopelessness by showing how LGBT people have successfully defended themselves against homophobic comments, threatening situations, and violence. We're Here! We're Queer! Get Used to Us! Survival Strategies for a Hostile World also includes a chapter describing same-sex intimate abuse and violence and includes examples of how GLBT people get out of damaging relationships.

Knowing Pains: Women on Love, Sex and Work in Our 40s
Have you ever wondered how other women survived their 40s? You'll get an earful in Knowing Pains, an honest, humorous, thoughtful and diverse collection of essays by real women who aren't afraid to tell their age and tell it like it is. Sex, marriage, love, divorce, motherhood, singlehood, passion, obsession. Nothing is off-limits to this startlingly fresh group of new female voices that Molly Rosen has brought together to swap stories and compare notes on the desires, influences and events that have impacted and shaped their midlives. Collectively, they form a true picture of how real women not only survive their 40s, but thrive with dignity, courage and laughter.
