Auf die Frage, was Homosexualit�t sei, was ihre Ursachen, Gr�nde oder Entstehungsbedingungen sein k�nnten, ist h�ufiger und mehr geantwortet worden, als die Frage selbst gestellt wurde. Ein wichtiger Fortschritt lesbischer und schwuler Emanzipation ist es, dass die Begr�ndung unserer Anspr�che an uns selbst und an Staat und Gesellschaft nicht mehr von einem wie auch immer gearteten Verst�ndnis von Homosexualit�t abh�ngt. Insofern k�nnen wir alle Beitr�ge dieser Liste entspannt als Wissenschaft oder Unterhaltung nehmen, auch wenn unsere Auswahl vor allem Sachb�cher mit wissenschaftlichem Anspruch enth�lt.
