20世纪50年代和60年代，医学和精神病学专业人士的观点对女同性恋者对自己和她们的性取向的观念产生了重要影响。这篇文章追溯了美国第一本广为流传的女同性恋出版物《阶梯》中对同性恋专业话语的描绘。由以白人为主的中产阶级女同性恋者组织Bilitis的女儿们出版的Ladder展示了1956至1965年间女同性恋者接受负面同性恋观念的变化的证据。这些变化在一定程度上归因于20世纪60年代同性恋运动的日益好战。
The views of medical and psychiatric professionals had an important effect on lesbians' conceptions of themselves and their sexuality in the 1950s and 1960s. This article traces the depiction of professional discourse on homosexuality inThe Ladder, the first widely circulated lesbian publication in the United States. Published by the Daughters of Bilitis, a group of largely white, middle‐class lesbians,The Laddershows evidence of changes in lesbians' acceptance of negative conceptions of homosexuality during the period 1956 to 1965. These changes are in part attributed to the increasing militancy of the homophile movement during the 1960s.
