Across protests and courtrooms Lgbtq+ advocates argue that sexual and gender identities are innate. Oppositely conservatives incite panic over groomers and a contagious gender ideology that corrupts susceptible children. Yet as this debate rages on the history of what first compelled the hunt for homosexuality's biological origin story may hold answers for the queer rights movement's future. Born This Way tells the story of how a biologically based understanding of gender and sexuality became central to Lgbtq+ advocacy. Starting in the 1950s activists sought out mental health experts to combat the pathologizing of homosexuality. As Joanna Wuest shows these relationships were forged in subsequent decades alongside two broader concurrent developments: the rise of an interest - group model of rights advocacy and an explosion of biogenetic and bio - based psychological research. The result is essential reading to fully understand Lgbtq+ activism today and how clashes over science remain crucial to equal rights struggles.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Born This Way Science Citizenship And Inequality In The American Lgbtq+ Movement\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Wuest Dr. Joanna\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: The University Of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780226827537\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 304 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 9\/15\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Civil Rights \u0026amp; Citizenship","brand":"Wuest Dr. Joanna","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49593430835505,"sku":"IN-G-9780226827537","price":35.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780226827537.jpg?v=1753226022","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780226827537-born-this-way-science-citizenship-and-inequality-in-the-american-lgbtq-movement","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
