c) Straight interracial couples
d) Both a and b
e) None of the options are correct
Answer:
Both a) lesbian interracial couples and b) gay male interracial couples felt the most invisible in Steinbugler's study.
In Steinbugler's study, the couples that felt most invisible were lesbian interracial couples and gay male interracial couples. According to the research, lesbian couples experienced social pressure and discrimination when living in an urban center, but when they moved to a small Midwestern town, they felt even more invisible. Similarly, gay male couples also faced social pressures and discrimination in both urban and small-town settings.
