the lesbian feminist

Given the shifts in society since the 1970's, does the phrase "lesbian feminist" even mean the same thing it did then - namely, a radical, separatist form of feminism?

And where is the true intersection between queer and feminist? I think we can all agree that it's quite common to be one without the other. But. Aren't there also some inevitable areas of mutual concern? What does it mean to be queer and a feminist? To be straight and a feminist?

I think the psychology of this precise issue can be very easy... Feminism and homosexuality are completely different things... Also, on different severities as well... For example, a Native American(or any other culture group) who is proud and stands up for who they are and thier specific identies and beliefs, doesnt mean they can't or wont be open to others as well... Sexual prefference is so mcuh different than other such beliefs... but dont listen to me, I am just a young lil one still learning... Baibai
