Women\u2019s relationships with other women are often disguised: by well-documented marriages to men, by a cultural refusal to see what is in full view or even to believe such relationships exist. In a world built by and for men and their pursuits, a woman who loves women does not register\u2014and is not registered, i.e., written down. Reasons for this layer one upon the other: A lesbian purposely hides her identity and remains closeted. A lesbian refuses to call herself a lesbian, disidentifying from the term and its associations for reasons personal or political. A woman does not know she is a lesbian\u2014because she does not ever have a relationship with another woman, or because she is not aware that the relationships she engages in could be called lesbian. I didn\u2019t call myself one for several years. Or, as in Carson\u2019s case, her own self-understanding and identification are difficult to determine because of the efforts of those who outlived her and pushed her into the closet.<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theparisreview.org\/blog\/2020\/02\/03\/the-closeting-of-carson-mccullers\/\" target=\"_blank\">Jenn Shapland<\/a> on the closeting of Carson McCullers<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u2022 At The Paris Review: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theparisreview.org\/blog\/2020\/02\/06\/the-collages-of-max-ernst\/\" target=\"_blank\">The Collages of Max Ernst<\/a>.
