In recent s, social acceptance of lbian, gay, bisexual, and transgenr (LGBT) people has grown (Loft, 2001; Flor, 2014), and legal barriers to relatnship regnn and parenthood have erod (Moore & Stambolis-Ruhstorfer, 2013), most dramatilly wh the 2015 U. Some have argued that the fay liv of LGBT people are begng to look a lot more “nventnal” (Nardi, 1999), wh upl settlg to domticy and formg nuclear fai, which some have crilly referred to as homonormativy (Duggan, 2003; Valver, 2006). Although recent poll data suggt that opposn to homosexualy and same-sex relatnships has softened recent years (Hull, 2015, 2016; McCarthy, 2017; Pew Rearch Center, 2017), poll data on such issu mt be terpreted wh utn (Coffman, Coffman, & Ericson, 2017), and many Amerins still hold the view that same-sex relatnships and gay and lbian parentg do not meet the fn of fay (Becker & Todd, 2013; Powell, 2014; Powell, Bolzendahl, Geist, & Steelman, 2010) rearch on LGBT experienc and nceptns of fay has foced on several key issu, cludg LGBT people’s relatnships wh their fai of orig, the formatn of fai of choice that emphasize iendship over blood and legal ti, and the legal and cultural obstacl facg same-sex relatnships and parentg by LGBT people.

But this queer-liberal narrative…pruppos accs to cultural and enomic pal and is much better sued to the liv of middle-class gays and lbians than to lower-e people of lor who have, by choice or necsy, pursued different fay formatns. (2010) (see also Powell, 2014; Powell et al., 2012), toward clnist mols of fay that emphasize functn over study sought to exame whether the creasg promence of same-sex marriage and the growth gay and lbian parentg has ed LGBT people to shift toward more tradnal fay fns. But, this study’s fdgs do not support the ia that trends toward same-sex marriage and gay and lbian parentg have led LGBT people to retreat om fg fay as chosen; rather, appears that LGBT people rema the vanguard of a broar social trend toward more expansive fay other ways, LGBT fns of fay are surprisgly nventnal.
The ntued softeng of attus toward homosexualy has almost certaly rced tensns between LGBT people and their blegal fai, leadg to a greater willgns among LGBT people to clu fay of orig and extend fay both abstract fns of fay and ncrete intifitns of current fay.

Some of the possible reasons for such differenc have already been discsed; the broar pot is that socially patterned diversy likely exists wh the LGBT populatn terms of both fg fay the abstract and intifyg particular kds of people as current study’s fdgs do not offer much support for queer criqu of the mastream gay rights movement that assert that the movement’s recent foc on marriage and parentg has driven queer people toward more heteronormative ways of fg and dog fay.
The rearch was nducted a mid-sized Midwtern metropolan area and clud many rponnts who do not live the urban re, thereby reprentg the experienc and sights of LGBT people not clud past studi nducted “gay mecs” like San Francis, New York, and Los Angel.
