Mignon Moore’s Invisible Families study explores the intersection of race and sexuality in the lives of black gay women in the United States. She found that many middle-class white lesbian couples experience sexuality as the primary framework that shapes their lives. What is the primary framework that black lesbians in the United States describe as most important?

Race

Explanation: Mignon Moore is a professor of sociology and examines issues that deal with family, race, gender and sexuality among others. Her first book, Invisible Families: Gay Identities, Relationships and Motherhood among Black Women published in 2011 examined the intersection of race with sexual orientation for family-building and lesbian identity among African-American women.

Framework is the way that people classify their experiences according to how it affects and inflences them. Primary frameworks describes events, give them social meaning and shows how lives are influenced by such societal views.

Professor Moore discovered that while sexuality is the most important primary framework for most middle class white lesbians, for black gay women, it was their race that was the primary framework.
