Every Book Leads Me Down a Rabbit Hole

Friday, October 16, 2026 - 15:00 The Lesbian Historic Motif Project For years, as I've been reading historic research related to lesbianism, I've regularly come across topics and people where my first reaction is: "Why isn't the question of intersex being raised here?" A very few authors have integrated the topic into a general history of sexuality, but eventually I decided to pick up some more focused studies. Now I keep having to remind myself that intersexuality is tangential to my central topic and I shouldn't go haring off after biographies and whatnot. Tomorrow's podcast will integrate my thoughts on why I consider it interesting and important to discuss intersexuality in the context of lesbian history. And then maybe I can set the topic aside and return to my lane. Major category: LHMPTags: LHMP LHMP #582b Linton 2022 Unmaking Sex Chapter 1 About LHMP Full citation: Linton, Anne E. 2022.
