Midlife Sapphic Revelation in the Age : How Media Support Coming Out Later, Hardcover by Masullo, Gina, ISBN 3031962575, ISBN-13 9783031962578, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US This book documents the lived experiences of women and nonbinary people who came out as queer in middle age, often after long heterosexual marriages. Using a survey and in-depth interviews, it documents the experiences of way-later-in-life sapphics as they come out, navigate dating apps, and join LGBTQIA+ communities on social media. The author complements this analysis by exploring their own experience coming out as queer and nonbinary in my 50s after a 22-year relationship with their ex-husband. They explore the role media—social media, online communities, and dating apps—played in supporting and complicating the process of self-discovery and coming out. This volume stands as a subversive statement—“We’re here, we’re queer, get used to it”—against the threats on LGBTQIA+ rights in the United States.
