In this paper I address the issue of female sexuality, in search of historical situations of female pleasure and enjoyment. I will thereby (re)unite or confuse lesbian and heterosexual identities in order to explore a method of historical research on lesbian sexuality. "Lesbian identity," as we know it today, is a sociocultural construction of the western world, thus this confusion seems necessary. The application of this or any notion of "lesbian identity" to historical and cultural periods prior to or outside of twentieth century western culture, would thus keep many moments, encounters and sensibilities, in which lesbian sexuality plays its part, out of our sight.
在本文中，我探讨女性性行为问题，以寻找女性愉悦和享受的历史情境。为此，我将（重新）融合或混淆女同性恋和异性恋身份，以便探索一种研究女同性恋性行为的历史研究方法。我们如今所知的“女同性恋身份”是西方世界的一种社会文化建构，因此这种混淆似乎是必要的。将这种或任何“女同性恋身份”概念应用于20世纪西方文化之前或之外的历史和文化时期，会使许多女同性恋性行为有所体现的时刻、邂逅和情感被我们忽视。
