LESBIAN QUESTIONNAIRE
Inserted in this month's LADDER is a sociological questionnaire sponsored by the Daughters of Bilitis, Inc.
This is the first step in a research program which will, we hope, enable us to publish information dealing with the common, garden variety Lesbian rather than the extreme examples which permeate most of the literature extant on the subject today.
We hope that you will fill out the questionnaire and send it in promptly. We hope, too, that you will tell your friends about it and send in for additional copies.
