Uses millennials' own stories to explore how they navigate gender, race, social class, sexuality, and age identities and expectations in their relationships. The book takes an intersectional approach to examining how millennials challenge-or rather, uphold-social inequalities in their lives as they come into their own as full adults.
Though stereotypes abound, we know surprisingly little about how U.S. American millennials deal with social inequalities and differences in their private lives. Intimate Inequalities uses stories from millennials themselves to explore how they navigate gender, race, social class, sexuality, and age identities and expectations in their relationships.
