DESCRIPTION:
Nevertheless, many couples still experience significant stress because of their same-sex status. Tough tasks like confronting prejudice will never be easy, but thanks to the stories, tools, and resources presented in this book, readers will learn to manage such situations in a positive way. This book helps couples work together to identify, develop, and use their strengths and skills to successfully navigate these issues and flourish. In every life context family, work, neighborhood, religious communities, and in social and legal contexts same-sex couples have to make decisions about disclosure, how to respond to prejudice, and how to cope with negative feelings about themselves and their experiences. As more states strike down laws restricting marriage to one man and one woman, same-sex relationships are becoming more visible
