Abstract

This article explores the meaning of woman space, woman centered space, and woman friendly space in Ontario feminist restaurants and cafes. Embodied in their creation and demolition, these spaces spoke to larger issues within the women’s movements, lesbian activism, and other social issues regarding language differences, nationalism, economics, governmental policy, and mobility from 1974-1982. The changing views on the need for woman only space restaurants and cafes matched with a constant tension with the male dominated systems of the local government and capitalism caused many woman spaces to ultimately disappear.
