| Sumario: | Why is it so much harder for American same-sex couples to get married than it is for them to adopt children? And why does our military prevent gays from serving openly even though jurisdictions nationwide continue to render such discrimination illegal?

The first book to compare results across a wide range of gay rights struggles, this volume explores debates over laws govern. |
