Westwood, Sue, 1957-

Ageing, gender and sexuality : equality in later life / Sue Westwood. - xiii, 244 pages ; 24 cm. - Routledge research in gender and society ; 49 .

Includes bibliographical references (page 200-228) and index.

Focuses on the experiences of older lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) individuals, in order to analyze how ageing, gender and sexuality intersect to produce particular inequalities relating to resources, recognition and representation in later life. Westwood adopts a feminist socio-legal perspective to propose that these inequalities are informed by and play out in relation to temporal, spatial and regulatory contexts.
