This article examines maternal narratives by lesbian, nonbiological co-parents published in the last decade and explains problems of recognition, wherein claims of identity are challenged, for lesbian parents whose partners give birth. These women encounter a discursive gap since no default term exists for their familial role. Applying Burke's theory of identification and Ratcliffe's rhetorical listening model illuminates how legal and social problems of recognition disempower lesbian co-mothers. The author concludes that narratives written by lesbian co-parents function as socio-discursive ways of affirming motherhood outside heterosexist norms and signify one additional way scholars must continue to attend to meaningful silences.View full textDownload full textRelated var addthis_config = { ui_cobrand: "Taylor & Francis Online", services_compact: "citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,more", pubid: "ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b" }; Add to shortlist Link Permalink http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/10904018.2012.712471

机译:本文研究了近十年来出版的女同性恋者,非生物学同伴的母体叙述,并解释了其伴侣生育的女同性恋父母的承认问题,其中对身份的主张提出了质疑。由于没有默认的家族角色,这些妇女遇到了话语障碍。伯克的认同理论和拉特克利夫的修辞倾听模型的应用,揭示了承认的法律和社会问题如何剥夺了女同性恋共同母亲的权力。作者得出的结论是,女同志同父异母的叙述是在异性恋规范之外肯定母亲身份的社会话语方式,并表示学者们必须继续采取有意义的沉默的另一种方式。查看全文下载全文相关的var addthis_config = {ui_cobrand:“ Taylor &Francis Online”,services_compact:“ citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,更多”,发布号:“ ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b”};添加到候选列表链接永久链接http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/10904018.2012.712471
