  • Title: A bonding of choice: values and identity among lesbian and gay religious leaders.
    Author: Fischer CB.
    Journal: J Homosex; ; 18(3-4):145-74. PubMed ID: 2625532.
    Abstract:
    In this preliminary study of values and attitudes of a select number of lesbian and gay religious leaders, respondents reflected on the meaning of family, church, and community. Although the survey is modest in scope, several themes emerge that locate this study in the context of gender analysis. Female respondents had greater similarity in their emphasis upon relationality than did lesbian and gay respondents within the same denominational tradition. For male respondents, the "coming out" narrative was a central event and deepened the meaning of telling another about self.
