Abstract
Although many studies have examined the overall adjustment of children of lesbian mothers as a group, an investigation of the unique relationships between lesbian mothers and their heterosexual daughters has been neglected. This article presents a postmodern feminist analysis of the relationship between lesbian mothers and their heterosexual daughters. Postmodern feminism is used to analyze the extant literature on lesbian-led families and the traditional psychological theories on mother-daughter relationships. The dominant discourses and binary constructs that define lesbian mother–heterosexual daughter relationships are revealed, thereby laying the groundwork for an examination of these relationships on their own terms.
