Summary
"This book highlights the microaggressions that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) people face on an everyday basis and examines the impacts that such experiences have on mental health. Building off the first edition of That's So Gay, it felt necessary to address all that has happened within and toward LGBTQ communities in the past 10 years. This second edition covers the topics in each chapter that are similar to those in the first edition. However, each chapter has been revised significantly, with new research, more relevant examples, and even updated language to replace dated terminology from a decade prior. It reviews the historical currents of acceptance and rejection of LGBTQ people in society and trace the research literature on the psychological effects of discrimination on LGBTQ people and other historically marginalized groups. The book combs through a finer level of race, gender, and LGBTQ research to reveal the taxonomy of microaggressions that uses as a lens to focus the research review and examples in subsequent chapters. It provides an overview of the current theoretical and empirical literature involving microaggressions toward various LGBTQ people and subgroups. The book explores how intersectional identities influence microaggressions faced by LGBTQ people of color, LGBTQ people with disabilities, LGBTQ older adults, LGBTQ people of diverse sizes, LGBTQ people of religious and nonreligious communities, and LGBTQ youth. Finally, it offers practical guidance on how to identify and deal with microaggressions as they occur, discussing implications for policy, clinical practice, and more."--Preface (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved).
