The hostility to lesbian rights is palpable.  But I've found that it is a
waste of time berating men who think lesbians should shut up, do what
they're told (by men and get to the back of the bus.

It is, however, weird that in the 21st century misogyny and lesbophobia
have become respectable in some parts of the left.  Dismissing a veteran
lesbian, trade union and socialist activist like Ann Menasche really is a
"sick and repugnant obsession" but I have no interest in wasting time on
men who have these attitudes to lesbians.

Happily, the vast bulk of the feedback we have had on Ann's article is
positive; people especially appreciated the historical info on the role of
lesbians, something the lesbophobes simply ignored.

Go the lesbians!
