In this feminist narrative study using in-depth interviews and focus groups, a racially and economically diverse sample of 45 lesbians described their access to and experience with health care. The multistaged narrative analysis revealed structural and interpersonal conditions uniquely faced by lesbians in obtaining health care services. At the macrolevel, heterosexist structuring of health care delivery was obstructive to lesbians' health care seeking, health knowledge, and health behaviors. At the micro, or individual level, health care providers' heterosexual assumptions competed against potentially supportive interactions with lesbian clients.
在这项采用深度访谈和焦点小组的女性主义叙事研究中,45名来自不同种族和经济背景的女同性恋者描述了她们获得医疗保健的途径和经历。多阶段叙事分析揭示了女同性恋者在获得医疗保健服务时独特面临的结构和人际状况。在宏观层面,医疗保健服务的异性恋主义结构阻碍了女同性恋者寻求医疗保健、获取健康知识和采取健康行为。在微观或个体层面,医疗保健提供者的异性恋假设与与女同性恋客户潜在的支持性互动相互竞争。
