Thread Name: Lesbians, Gays and folk music
Subject: RE: Lesbians, Gays and folk music
The old joke :-

What's the difference between a straight and a bisexual?
Answer: about ten pints

on that basis the folk clubs would be a very a pretty good place to find the perfect partner to cop off with - full of men, mostly pissed, many of them excesively anal (when it comes to guitars at least).

The real answer to this thread is surely the role of the women's peace movement - Greenham etc. they were all great singers. they sort of were sort of progressive and expressive, when most men were singing about how shocking it was being in a foxhole in the first world war, and then the gaffer come an give you a clip round the ear....etc.
