Although conceptualizations of the term leisure have varied throughout this century (i. ... , leisure as an objective activity, leisure as a subjective state of mind), an implicit, underlying assumption of our understanding of leisure has remained constant. Leisure is, at least for young people, a context for the development of heterosocial, and by extension, heterosexual, relationships. Peiss (1986) has argued that heterosocial relationships were sanctioned, encouraged, and legitimated within leisure contexts and leisure spaces at the turn of the century. Gender, class, and sexual desire were also constructed within leisure contexts (Peiss, 1986).
