Yo Biddies it's #6!!!

So I'm back a square one again, but I'm happy about it. After our last class I decided that I wanted to go in a different direction with my study. I want to understand and label the different groups of lesbians on the Fredonia campus. This study stems off of the U-haul article. I thought it was interesting how the author put a label on these lesbians subgroups. I want to label the pre-existing lesbian groups on campus and then interview them on how they would categorize themselves. Asking them questions like how they think people on campus stereotype them, how that affects them. I would also be interested in asking outside groups that don't identify with the lesbian community about how they would stereotype these different groups of lesbians, and if there are any groups that I may not be aware of. Ill probably set up individual interviews with people and follow up with a survey. I've been looking at other studies surrounding the lesbian culture. I've found a few articles, but haven't had enough to really dive into them. In conclusion though, I'm happy with my new topic and look forward to what I find.
