Sociology • Gender Studies
Cara Bergstrom-Lynch has written an insightful and well-researched book on some gay
men s and lesbians pathways into parenthood. One of the most refreshing aspects of her
research and approach is that she focuses not only on individuals and couples processes
toward becoming parents but also on voluntarily opting out of parenthood or remaining
childfree as a matter of circumstance. Whether you view twenty-first-century queer-spawn as
a gayby boom or gayby doom, you ll find plenty of fresh perspectives and food for thought
in the narratives Bergstrom-Lynch presents and analyzes.
—Carla A. Pfeffer, University of South Carolina
Bergstrom-Lynch offers a compelling and important examination of how gay and lesbian
couples decide to remain childless or become parents. Through extensive quoting of
in-depth interviews, she captures the complexities that LGB couples face and the strategies
they develop to combat institutional inequalities, reproductive obstacles, and adoptive
challenges. These rainbow strategists draw upon a cultural tool kit of queer empowerment
rooted in the gay rights movement.
—Rosanna Hertz, author of Single by Chance, Mothers by Choice:
How Women are Choosing Parenthood without Marriage and
Creating the New American Family
Deciding to have children is intensely personal and, as Bergstrom-Lynch highlights, also
historically and socially shaped. This carefully researched book delves into the stories
lesbians, gays, and bisexuals tell about choosing to parent (or not) and how they chose
their particular paths to parenthood or nonparenthood. The deeply moving accounts are
presented with rich analysis so as to paint a complex picture of the work it takes people to
construct their rainbow families. Karin A. Martin, University of Michigan
Lesbians, Gays, and Bisexuals Becoming Parents or Remaining Childfree: Confronting
Social Inequalities recognizes that intense public battles are being waged in the United
States over the rights of LGB people to form legally and culturally recognized families. Their
families are under a kind of sociopolitical scrutiny at this historical moment that compels
us all to take stock of our strategies of family-building and, more broadly, the meaning
of family in the United States today. Through in-depth, open-ended, qualitative interviews
with sixty-one self-identified lesbian, gay, and bisexual people regarding how they came
to have children or remain childless/childfree, this book reveals the challenges posed by
homophobia and discrimination and showcases the creative strategies, resilience, and
resourcefulness of lesbians, bisexuals, and gays as they build families (with or without
children) after coming out. In a sociopolitical context in which gay, lesbian, and bisexual
people often have to struggle to access the array of rights and opportunities that are
afforded to most heterosexual people without question, addressing the questions raised in
this book is an urgent and necessary endeavor.
CARA BERGSTROM-LYNCH is associate professor of sociology at Eastern Connecticut
State University.
