In 1970, feminists merged for agendas of homosexual and abortion rights.
“I don’t know if I would ever come out if it hadn’t been for the women’s movement. The women’s movement first led me to question the naturalness of the male-female roles I had always largely accepted. The movement helped me to reject those roles, and with them every reason for struggling to be heterosexual. I realized femaleness was something I was born with. It was not something others could reward me with when I acted ‘feminine’ or take away from me as a punishment” -Cited in Our Bodies, Ourselves (Boston Women's Health Collective) |
