The myth of a woman
february 2025
The relationship between womanhood and lesbianism is complex because it involves navigating societal expectations of femininity and the individual expressions of lesbian identity. In the past, the idea of womanhood has been associated with submissiveness, motherhood, or the general idea of centering men and being complacent in that situation.
So by those definitions, lesbianism at its core is the antithesis of what it is to be a woman.
