Istopolne porodice u Srbiji u vreme epidemije kovid-19
Same-sex Families in Serbia in Times of Covid-19

Summary/Abstract: This paper presents a qualitative research on the experiences of same-sex families in Serbia since the beginning of the kovid-19 epidemic. In Serbia, same-sex families are not legally recognized, while the law on same-sex unions has not yet been adopted.The first part of the paper focuses on the theoretical- epistemological assumptions of the research of same-sex families and LGBTQ+ parenting, while the second part offers an interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA) through three case studies. In this paper, I analyze the experiences related to the family life of three women during and after the pandemic period, focusing on the wide range of meanings that this brings with it. The research strives to presentthe authentic meanings of the lesbian parents as closely as possible, taking into account the differences in the perspectives and interpretations of the respondents. The theoretical and epistemological framework is a phenomenological approach, and the aim of the paper is not only to analyze and describe the experiences and meanings that the respondents had during the pandemic period, but connecting these experiences with the wider socio-cultural and political context, in order to determine how the context and personal stories are connected.
