Interesting historical view of lesbianism


Gidget refers to herself as someone who needs to be locked away or put on display in an museum/institution because she doesn't think she likes boys.

Sorry, but no lesbianism. That's not what she was talking about. She explained that she liked boys, but didn't like being pawed by them on dates. She was inexperienced and hadn't become comfortable with physical intimacy yet. Her hugging and kissing with Moondoggie indicated she was getting to like it, and was undoubtedly heterosexual.
