Description

October Toronto The Wages Due Lesbians collective was formed. The group was composed of lesbians who were trying to integrate a class analysis into lesbian-feminism. They became heavily involved in the International Wages for Housework movement, which linked various aspects of women's oppression to unpaid labour in the home. Wages Due Lesbians was interested in the rights of lesbian mothers and produced several position papers on lesbians and wages for housework, including "Why Lesbians Want Wages for Housework" and "Fucking Is Work."
