A GUIDE FOR WOMEN DATING WOMEN

By Joyce M. Gayles, Ph.D.

 If only Ellen had had this book, maybe she wouldn't have agonized so long about coming "out"...

Women everywhere are coming out, and we're not talking about debutantes. Ellen Degeneres came out on national TV a few years ago, and thousands of other women living "ordinary lives" in urban, rural, and suburban America are claiming their sexual identity and coming out too.

But what do you do once you're out? Until now, little information has been available to help women understand the realm of romantic experience with other women. And there have been next to zero dating guides for women dating women. Until...The Dating Dance.

The Dating Dance is a landmark book that finally demystifies the dating process for lesbians. In its pages, Dr. Gayles introduces a new paradigm for successful dating into the 21st century. Using a lively interactive format, The Dating Dance takes you through:

 Where to go to meet your match

 The art of the first date

 The "how-to" of asking someone out

 Personal preparation for dating

 Getting to know her - staying curious and learning to communicate

 Dealing with sex in early and later stages of dating

 Understanding romantic relating

The Dating Dance is, as author Joyce Gayle says, "a book for our times - a time when women are emerging, making intelligent decisions that come from the core of who they are, and living, more than ever, lives that are self-directed, fulfilling, and balanced, rather than 'lives of quiet desperation.'" Whether you're newly out or have been out nearly all your life, The Dating Dance will inspire you, delight you, and give you many practical tools to help you experience more comfort, joy and success in dating.

"The Dating Dance is a pioneering guide for women dating women."

- Sari Meltzer, Ph.D., psychologist

"The Dating Dance is an insightful manual packed with practical tips for dating. It's one of the most fascinating and useful books on the subject of relationships."

- Laura M. Villagrán, publisher of the Houston Gay and Lesbian Yellow Pages
