[edit] Serious work

This is not my area of expertise (biographies of conservative lesbians) but this page needs some serious rewriting and editing. This sentence in particular, in addition to needed an edit and rewrite with three less clauses, shows extreme bias: "She dated women and describes how inferior she felt, when judged by women during flirting: the harsh way in which many women pre-judged her, assuming all men to be essentially the same, turned her, albeit briefly, into a "temporary misogynist", seeing as most women never can the failings of her own sex from the other side."

I haven't inspected the sources used for this page, but at the very least, the claim that "women never can [see] the failings of her own sex" needs to be attributed to someone. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.238.187.244 (talk) 02:59, 8 December 2006 (UTC).

I read it as attributed to herself, and thus unbiased. It still needs a proper reference though.--Per Abrahamsen 20:30, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] feminist?

does she self-identify as a feminist? nothing in the material listed in this wikipedia article suggests that, and i've never heard her described as a feminist elsewhere. not all lesbians are feminist! --lquilter 15:06, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
