Críticas:
""Tearoom Trade" was Laud's most significant book...what emerged in this ground-breaking research was a sociological portrait of conservative and tormented lives: married men, family men, conservative men, whose personal proclivities and preferences were powerful enough, institutionally grounded enough, to break through the conventions of social life."--Glenn A. Goodwin, Irving Louis Horowitz, and Peter M. Nardi, "Sociological Inquiry" * Recipient of the C. Wright Mills Award -I found the book interesting and descriptively informative. I learned how the tearoom operates, and this is valuable for sociological understanding of urban America and potentially for sex-role analysis.- --Ira L. Reiss, American Sociological Review -For the anthropologist, and for other social scientists, Tearoom Trade is noteworthy for two reasons. First, it deals with a heretofore underdescribed aspect of American society. Second, it contains a candid discussion of the methodological problems of studying deviance.- --E. B. Eiselein, American Anthropologist -Few sociological books in recent years have received the attacks and accolades that Tearoom Trade has. In addition to being viewed extensively in both the professional and public media, it has received the 1969 C. Wright Mills award from the Society for the Study of Social Problems.- --Lawrence Rosen, Journal of Marriage and the Family -From 1985 to 1988, the arrests of large numbers of men involved in impersonal sex in public toilets became a major Canadian news story... The present study examines this deviant activity using information generated by police surveillance of seven public washrooms in five Canadian communities.- --Frederick J. Desroches, Qualitative Sociology -Tearoom Trade was Laud's most significant book...what emerged in this ground-breaking research was a sociological portrait of conservative and tormented lives: married men, family men, conservative men, whose personal proclivities and preferences were powerful enough, institutionally grounded enough, to break through the conventions of social life.- --Glenn A.

Reseña del editor:

From the time of its first publication, Tearoom Trade engendered controversy. It was also accorded an unusual amount of praise for a first book on a marginal, intentionally self-effacing population by a previously unknown sociologist. The book was quickly recognized as an important, imaginative, and useful contribution to our understanding of deviant sexual activity. Describing impersonal, anonymous sexual encounters in public restroomstearooms in the argotthe book explores the behavior of men whose closet homosexuality is kept from their families and neighbors.
