These arguments could have been even stronger with more rigorous methods. The chapter that explores LGBTQ+ attitudes toward the lives of straight people, while captivating, relies heavily on the author’s personal social media networks. Ward acknowledges that these data are not meant to be generalizable, yet this caveat sidesteps an important question: If heterosexuality is such a tragedy, why do so many LGBTQ+ people outside Ward’s queer and progressive networks seek to model their relationships and families after it? Had this chapter included the rich content analysis and ethnography that made other chapters so powerful, this question could perhaps have been more deeply explored. However, these minor critiques in no way diminish the importance of the book, which I expect to become required reading in LGBTQ+ and gender studies courses.

如果采用更严格的方法,这些论点可能会更加有力。探讨 LGBTQ+ 对异性恋生活的态度的章节虽然引人入胜,但在很大程度上依赖于作者的个人社交媒体网络。Ward 承认这些数据并不意味着可以推广,但这一警告回避了一个重要问题:如果异性恋是这样的悲剧,为什么在 Ward 的酷儿和进步网络之外有这么多 LGBTQ+ 人寻求模仿他们的关系和家庭?如果这一章包含使其他章节如此强大的丰富的内容分析和民族志,那么这个问题也许可以得到更深入的探讨。然而,这些细微的批评绝不会削弱这本书的重要性,我希望它会成为 LGBTQ+ 和性别研究课程的必读。
