Intimate Inequalities: Millennials' Romantic Relationships in Contemporary Times

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Though stereotypes abound, we know surprisingly little about how U.S. American millennials deal with social inequalities and differences in their private lives. Intimate Inequalities uses stories from millennials themselves to explore how they navigate gender, race, social class, sexuality, and age identities and expectations in their relationships.
