这一特别的特写通过提供一个明确的女权主义者来推进关于女同性恋和同性恋婚姻的辩论
作为讨论的论坛，并根据个人经验和政治现实作出贡献。这些贡献的范围从理论论证到个人故事，再到对前线激进主义的描述。体验
凯瑟琳和贝基·利德尔以及凯文·布拉萨描述了结婚的过程。Bourassa的论文表明，对于女同性恋者和男同性恋者来说，这些非常个人化的事件有时会占据争取平等的更广泛政治斗争的中心舞台。伊丽莎白·皮尔和罗西·哈丁提供了一份经过编辑的文字记录，内容是他们关系早期的一次讨论，内容是他们是否会登记他们的
关系--如果这是英国男女同性恋者的一种选择--以及他们是否会欢迎某种仪式或仪式来纪念这一点。在玛丽亚·贝瓦奎亚关于为什么自由派和激进派都应该支持女同性恋者和男同性恋者结婚权利的争论中，女权主义理论占据了中心舞台。凯瑟琳·多诺万也借鉴了激进和批判性的观点，但他认为
反对婚姻。她坚持认为，婚姻作为一种制度和爱情的典范，并不是女同性恋者和男同性恋者所能做的最好的事情。移民的经历
马丁·霍尔特讨论了一对同性恋情侣。他认为，移民法迫使女同性恋者和男同性恋者证明他们的关系符合异性恋规范。最后，辩论超越了范围。
在马丁·萨维德拉的贡献中，概述了拉丁美洲同性婚姻的现状。
This special feature takes forward the debate on lesbian and gay marriage by providing an explicitly feminist
forum for the discussion and by grounding the contributions both in personal experience and in political reality. The contributions range from theoretical arguments to personal stories to accounts of front-line activism. The experience
of getting ‘married’ is described by Kathleen and Becky Liddle, and Kevin Bourassa. Bourassa’s paper illustrates that for lesbians and gay men these deeply personal events at times occupy centre stage in a wider political battle for ‘equality’. Elizabeth Peel and Rosie Harding provide an edited transcript of a discussion from early in their relationship about whether they would register their
relationship – if this were an option available to lesbians and gay men in the UK – and whether they would welcome some kind of ceremony or ritual to mark this. Feminist theory takes centre stage in Maria Bevacqua’s argument about why both liberals and radicals should support lesbians’ and gay men’s right to marry. Catherine Donovan also draws on radical and critical perspectives, but to argue
against marriage. She maintains that marriage as an institution and as a model of love is not the ‘best’ that lesbians and gay men can do. The experience of emigrating
as a gay couple is discussed by Martin Holt. He argues that immigration laws compel lesbians and gay men to demonstrate how their relationships conform to heterosexual norms. Finally, the debate is extended beyond the confines
of the West in Martin Saavedra’s contribution, which outlines the current status of same-sex marriage in Latin America.
