    Gillian Dunne examined, 37 cohabiting lesbian couples and found out there is no role to conform to and the woman shared the roles. Equally she found an absence of gender script meant that relationships are far more equal and negotiated. Gender scripts are ingrained ideas about what men and women should do according to gender stereotypes. this reinforces, the claims made by liberal feminists that the family is responsible for reinforcing unequal gender scripts and also support radical feminists view that the problem lies with the men and women should be political lesbians.
