Stigma and Sexual Orientation
Understanding Prejudice against Lesbians, Gay Men and Bisexuals

Edited by:


February 1998 | 288 pages | SAGE Publications, Inc
This timely and accessible contribution towards a deeper understanding of homophobia provides much-needed insight into the issue of prejudice in general.

Topics discussed include: the nature of antigay prejudice, stereotypes and behaviours; the consequences of homophobia and related phenomena on the well-being of lesbians, gay men and bisexuals; and the critical need for psychology and science to confront homophobia and related issues.
