Doing
the Work of Love : Men & Commitment in Same-Sex Couples
by J.
Michael Clark
This book explores intimate, coupled, committed
relationships among gay men.
"I found this a liberating book. Michael
Clark personally knows what it is to take back from heterosexist
control the power to define his own identity. He knows and shows
how lesbians and other minorities have an important stake in
liberating the gay ghetto." -- James B. Nelson, Professor
Emeritus of Christian Ethics, United Theological Seminary of the
Twin Cities, author of The
Intimate Connection: Male Sexuality, Masculine Spirituality and
Body Theology
"In Doing the Work of Love, J. Michael
Clark is writing in an area that clearly needs a great deal of
work. His critique ... contribute[s] significantly to the
literature that is stretching toward new ways of creating more
just and satisfying intimate relationships outside of sexist and
heterosexist consciousness." -- Stephen B. Boyd, J.
Allen Easley Professor of Religion, Wake Forest University, author
of The Men We Long to Be

Rainbow Law was founded by an
attorney and an RN who both know first hand what protections are
needed in legal and in medical settings. Our web site was created to
reach out to as many lesbians and gay men as possible in order to
provide them with access to legal information and documents that are
necessary to protect same-sex relationships in case of death,
disability or break-up. We describe and demystify documents like the
Living Revocable Trust, Living Will, Durable Powers of Attorney and
Living Together Agreement, to name a few. We tell you in plain
English how these documents protect us and why lesbians and gay men
need them. To emphasize our commitment to the LGBT community, we
provide the same documents, inexpensively, and offer a sliding scale
fee. And Rainbow Law documents are legal in all 50 states. Until our
government grants us equal rights in our relationships, Rainbow Law
is determined to see that every lesbian and gay man is empowered by
legal information and protection. In addition to the web site, we
offer free workshops throughout the country and are in the process
of writing a book based on the workshop. Especially now, during this
time of crisis and uncertainty, we need to get our wishes in
writing. Until we do, although we are partners in love and in life,
we are legal strangers in the eyes of the law.
