Unlike liberal feminists, radical feminists: a: emphasize difference c) d) fought to get women the vote support free love with all the radical dudes . Ancient greeks considered homosexuality okay as it was love between equals . Monotheistic religions condemn homosexuality as a sin (leviticus ch 20 - death penalty for homosexuality) Lgbt is now a new identity group (sharing a civil, social, political identity) As a new identity movement, there has been the development of a new community with a history, literature (western has a pride library), etc. There is a demand for recognition towards this new class. Sexual orientation - sexual or emotional attraction toward other people that is essential to one"s identity. Gender identity - do you feel like a man or a woman, usually consistent with sex assigned at birth. Lbgti = lesbian, gay, bisexual. transgender, intersex persons.
