Abstract
- This work is part of a research that started and has been developing since 2014. We have interviewed 41 lesbians in Spain. This particular section examines the difficulties homosexuals have to overcome to be part of the community, and the social commitment that has arose from these circumstances. The testimonies of the interviewee have been analyzed from the theoretical framework of feminism, combined with the documentary and bibliographical reflection on affective, sexual and gender diversity. The self-expression and the self-designation of homosexual women is very plural. Not all of them feel indebted to feminism, and among those who are militants there are also many nuances. Personal demands become political thanks to organized movements, although many of their needs often remain outside political agendas.
