"In this book the history of the LBT movement is charted, from invisibility, to visibility and now again to hiding. The author explores the persistence of the butch/femme model of relationships; the proliferations of identities, family violence and conversion therapy, and religion. The anti-LGBT campaign is also extensively analysed. In its insistence on the local dynamics of this movement, the book aims to debunk the idea that homosexuality is a Western import.
