Summary: What's in a relationship?
Comment: Apparently not sex-necessarily. In this book, Brehony and Rothblum explore the lives of lesbian women who, for whatever reason, omit sex from their relationships. The authors' inclusion of theoretical models, personal accounts, and discussants effectively illustrates portraits of real people who make conscious decisions about their sexuality- not women who are controlled or defined by existing social constructions. The book powerfully raises philosophical questions about the nature of relationships in general- for example, what is a relationship without sex? The book calls all people to question the nature and purpose of their own sexuality. I omit one star simply for its lack of historical and statistical data. However, the book serves its purpose- recognizing and attempting to understand relationships that have previously been undiscussed.
