==Lesbian generations (in the United States)==
In the 1950s and early 1960s, lesbian culture tended to be working-class, centered in bars, and based around a "butch"-"femme" distinction.  At the end of the 1960s and in the early 1970s, a new type of lesbian culture grew out of the resurgent feminist movement, and tended to be middle-class, centered around universities, and strongly rejecting the conventionalized masculine and feminine stereotypes which appeared to be the basis of the "butch" and "femme" roles.  This could probably be explained more clearly... [[User:AnonMoos|AnonMoos]] ([[User talk:AnonMoos|talk]]) 05:35, 14 February 2015 (UTC)
