Description
May 23–24 Bolton, Ont. About a hundred women attended a feminist conference, billed as a country retreat, to embark on consciousness-raising and to discuss strategies and directions for the women's movement. Members of Wages Due Lesbians (Toronto) attended and spoke on organizing in the Wages for Housework campaign. A discussion on the "institution of heterosexuality" led to a rift among participants, with some lesbian separatists challenging other women to justify heterosexuality politically.
