Quotes by Elizabeth Lapovsky Kennedy (?)

“Gay-male history is shaped by the privilege of men just as lesbian history is by the oppression of women. Lesbians not only have to resist lesbian oppression in order to have erotic relationships with women but also had to struggle to function autonomously from men.”
― Elizabeth Lapovsky Kennedy, Boots of Leather, Slippers of Gold: The History of a Lesbian Community
