Description: "Lesbians in Committed Relationships presents a rare firsthand look into the everyday lives of four lesbian couples, from the routine (Who does the dishes?) to the unexpected (What happens if I die first?) to the unimaginable (Why can't I tell anyone we're together?). Their stories define relationships that work - the pairing of partners who share a common bond built by love, communication, and respect, a bond not broken by oppression, discrimination, or lack of understanding.

Lesbians in Committed Relationships provides valuable insights for lesbians - single or committed to a relationships - as well as their families and friends and for counselors and therapists who work with couples."--BOOK JACKET.
