    • Abstract:
      The article explores what the author refers to as: queer dilemmas of desire. The author reports that queer women on college campuses are less likely to suppress their desire. Topics discussed include awareness and acceptance of their attractions, the boundary between erotic love and intense friendship, the notion and history of romantic friendship, and the book "Dilemmas of Desire," by Deborah Tolman.
