While lesbian families have historically been created through adoption by one parent of children from a previous marriage, it is becoming more common for lesbian couples to create their own families through artificial insemination. However, the homophobia and heterosexism within the health care system deny the legitimacy of this family form. Pregnant lesbians may feel that they have to choose between inclusion of their partners of adequate care. This article reviews many of the issues faced by lesbians as they struggle with the question of becoming mothers, and how social workers can help their lesbian clients address these issues.","PeriodicalId":141514,"journal":{"name":"Health Care for Lesbians and Gay Men: Confronting Homophobia and Heterosexism","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125011232","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent studies challenge earlier beliefs that the incidence of substance abuse is higher among gay men and lesbians than in the general population. However, a substantial number of this population drink problematically. This article reviews the literature on the etiology of substance abuse among gay men lesbians, and details important assessment and treatment issues unique to this population. The strengths and limited of gay-specific treatment programs are discussed. Recommendations are made about how social workers can respond more appropriately to their gay and lesbian clients.","PeriodicalId":141514,"journal":{"name":"Health Care for Lesbians and Gay Men: Confronting Homophobia and Heterosexism","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121451692","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
