Lesbian Ethics: Toward New Value uses lesbian experience as a starting point for redefining ethics.

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.
