The overall thesis is that the values from anglo-european ethical philosophy undermine rather than promote lesbian connection.

Challenging control in lesbian relationships, the book develops an ethics relevant to lesbians under oppression — one which avoids both blaming the victim and victimism, embraces the spirit of lesbian resistance, and encourages plurality.
