(1/6) My open-access article, 'Nemone Lethbridgeβs play Baby Blues on BBC television: maternal mental illness narratives, stigma and support in 1970s Britainβ, has been published by Women's History Review for our LTOM project: doi.org/10.1080/096120β¦
This #InternationalWomensDay why not read my article about the 'The Wild Women of the West (Midlands)β? It's on dykes being excellent. Or you know, read basically any of my single author publications, they're all on women being fantastic. #HistSex #LGBTQ tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10β¦

Day 1 of #LGBTHistoryMonth spent proofreading my lesbian (s)experts chapter. AKA: the dental dams one.
Top tip for allies: the best way you can mark #LGBTHM is by employing a queer historian like me to write/teach more cool/fun/important queer history at your university. π³οΈβππ€π³οΈββ§οΈ
