In the first section, radical feminist and theologian Mary Daly lectures about misogyny in the medical field, including the widespread use of Hormone Replacement Therapy for menopausal women and the increased risk of cancer associated with the birth control pill. She also informs her audience about the career of surgeon James Burt who, for approximately 30 years, reconstructed women’s genitalia after childbirth, often without consent, thinking that they were poorly designed for sexual pleasure.

The Lesbian Avengers Eat Fire, Too offers a look at the New York group's first year, from their initial demonstration in front of an elementary school in '92 to the Dyke March in DC, where the Avengers ate fire in front of the White House, cheered on by an enormous crowd.

The video supplements footage of actions with portraits of real-life Avengers still giddy with their first experiences of taking to the streets as out dykes, as well as interviews with puzzled tourists trying to answer the question, "Who are the Lesbian Avengers?"

Edited by two Avengers, videomaker Janet Baus, and experimental filmmaker, Su Friedrich, the video was a group effort, with a number of Avengers contributing.

The Lesbian Avenger employed fire eating as an act of protest as a response to arson attacks against gays and lesbians who had been killed by Molotov cocktails thrown into their homes. ]]> Licensed under CC BY-NC-ND]]>
