Gay men and lbian women are historilly unable to fulfill wily valued expectatns and valu, cludg most notably heterosexual marriage (Heath, 2012; Schulman, 2009). Th, gay and lbian tergeneratnal ti may be high on the dimensn of nflict and low on levels of solidary (Balsam et al., 2008; Kurk, 2005; Solomon, Rothblum, & Balsam, 2004).
This may be particularly salient the -law tie; midlife to later life gays and lbians have rtricted accs to legal and socially sanctned marriage relatnships, yet parents--law are formally predited on a legally regnized relatnship (Oswald, 2002).
