The result is that they espoused a very conservative gender politics in which they distanced themselves from same-sex sexuality and ultimately from erotic autonomy. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Frontiers: A Journal of Women Studies is the property of University of Nebraska Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
