Love Between Women Early Christian Responses to Female Homoeroticism
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Univ of Chicago Pr
- Publish date: 11/01/1996
Description:
Employing an unparalleled range of cultural sources, Brooten finds evidence of marriages between women, and discusses the surgical procedure of clitoridectomy as a method of controlling female homoeroticism. She establishes that condemnations of female homoerotic practices were based on widespread awareness of sexual love between women. Brooten contends that early Christians and their Roman neighbors shared a view of the "natural" order of society, in which women were passive, submissive partners to men.
