Should a migrant community preserve its original culture at the expense of women's individuality, or transform its attitude towards gender in ways that challenge age old traditions? "Women Crossing Boundaries" focuses on the impact of the process of migration on the development of sexuality and gender roles for women. Based on extensive research and interviews, the book presents the life narratives of immigrant and refugee women from Europe, Latin America, Asia, and the Caribbean. Ranging in age from the early 20s to the mid-70s, they discuss the development of their sexuality in the context of their home culture and the acculturation process demanded by their new country. At this time of massive transcultural migrations, this volume provides a valuable, in-depth exploration of women's perspectives on the immigrant experience.
