Formatted Contents Note: chapter Note -- chapter ISRAEL Spike Pittsberg -- chapter ITALY Rosanna Fiocchetto -- chapter Social purity in the 1980s -- chapter The GLC grapples with gay rights -- chapter In the late 1950s I walked the streets looking so butch that straight teenagers called me bulldyke: however, when I went to the Sea Colony, a working-class bar in Greenwich Village, looking for my friends and sometimes for a lover, I was a femme…(Nestle, 1987:100) -- chapter feminine in her lover, the woman in the butch the domestication of her relationship? (And the lesbian loses it all in the end because the two are mutually exclusive?) • And what about the femme? Does she want to be the object of desire? Does she desire the butch only as her objectifier? Is she better placed to resist the merging? Is it the femme who can keep the butch at arm’s length and prolong desire? • Who pursues who? -- chapter We know that some butches don’t like to be penetrated at all, or even to have their genitals touched—why is this? (On the other hand, what about the famous butches ‘on the streets’, who are infamously femme ‘between the sheets’?) Don’t misunderstand: we are not suggesting that a ‘real’ femme never really is wet to fuck her lover, and we know that many butches live in hope that their femme lover will want to fuck them too. • Is it possible that butches and femmes experience penetration and orgasm in different ways? -- chapter I am here in a cradle or a womb, or a lap, on a knee that is shapely under my thigh leaving the impression that I will never be alone. I am here to remember faces I have never seen before and I do love, Jewelle Gomez Note.
