From the first Lesbian Kiss to Today | A History of Lesbian Film & TV | Parts 1& 2

For those new to my channel or if you haven't yet checked it out, I thought I'd post both parts of my History of Sapphic Film & TV together for easy reference. Here I dive into how sapphics have been represented from the beginning of moving pictures in the 1890's to today (well end of 2022 when I originally made this)
