Ninety-one lesbians were surveyed in an effort to determine how homosexual women function within the heterosexual macro-culture and the homosexual micro-culture. Those sampled tended to be young, white, urban, and well-educated professionals. By exploring four major categories (demographics, lesbian lifestyles/homosexual culture, social relationships, and participation in the heterosexual culture) it was found that respondents felt isolated from the heterosexual macro-culture and turn to the homosexual micro-culture for friends, emotional support, and social interaction. It was also discovered that while lesbians do feel isolated from the majority of society, they function productively in a dual role within their general environment.
为了确定同性恋女性在异性恋宏观文化和同性恋微观文化中如何发挥作用，对91名女同性恋者进行了调查。抽样调查对象往往是年轻、白人、居住在城市且受过良好教育的专业人士。通过探究四个主要类别（人口统计学、女同性恋生活方式/同性恋文化、社会关系以及对异性恋文化的参与情况）发现，受访者感到与异性恋宏观文化隔绝，于是转向同性恋微观文化以寻求朋友、情感支持和社会互动。研究还发现，尽管女同性恋者确实感到与社会的大多数人隔绝，但她们在总体环境中以双重角色有效地发挥着作用。
