Suzanne Pharr's Homophobia: A Weapon of Sexism may be an effective tool for women committed to overcoming their own homophobia who want practical advice on recognizing and eradicating it, although as an essay in theory it does not advance the issues. The author seems unaware that Celia Kitzinger has argued recently that "homophobia" is not a helpful concept because it individualizes problems better seen as political and begs the question of the rationality of the fear. I argue that "homophobia" has been misused but that freed of the medical model and understood in connection with issues of pride and shame, it can be a helpful concept.

This article is an autoethnographic account of one person's struggle with homophobia. It chronicles the experiences and internal battle of the author as she struggles to understand and be accepting of homosexuality. The author identifies and discusses messages received, in early childhood and adulthood, as it relates to homosexuality and gender. These messages encompass religious ideology, as well as family and community beliefs toward gay/lesbian individuals.
Homophobia among certain men could be understood as a reactionary form of social resilience, insofar as such resilience can work against adaptation and social transformation. Resilience is again closely related to the concept of ' sus- tainability ' . Many fans position the expression of negativity towards gays as a heroic struggle against ' political correctness ' and in defence of freedom of thought and speech. But it should also be seen as a strategic action to manipulate the feelings of opponents in order to win. In a time of global hyper commodi fi - cation, the paramount goal of winning stimulates strategic actions that contribute to shaping norms and values. ; This is an Author's Accepted Manuscript of an article published in Krøvel, R.

"Homophobia has been defined as "an irrationally negative attitude toward [homosexuals]" that can manifest itself in harassment, verbal abuse, and even outright violence. Despite recent changes, like the legal recognition of same-sex marriage in Canada and Massachusetts, homophobic attitudes still pervade both legislative and judicial decisions, denying rights on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity. This book undertakes in-depth analysis of judicial reasoning to show how courts can, by stripping gay men and lesbians of choices, reward invisibility. The book, however, is not intended to be just a bleak critique. To the contrary, it seeks to foster change and offer alternatives for those interested in avoiding stereotypes and helping the oppressed achieve a more fulfilling life"--Introduction.

In addition to the stresses of everyday life, gay men, lesbians and bisexuals experience multiple pressures and constraints related to their chosen lifestyles. This volume examines the gay and lesbian experience in light of this additional tension - which can result in psychopathology - and points towards a future free of heterosexism. The internationally renowned contributors argue that the stress of `coming out', uncertainties concerning parenting children, and the difficulties facing ethnic minority lesbians, gay men and bisexuals cannot be adequately addressed without confronting the he
