Dobkin was an early idol in the women-loving-women movement. “Long before K.D. Lang transformed herself from a country artist into an androgyne pop idol and sex symbol, smoldering in a man’s suit on the cover of Vanity Fair being mock-shaved by the supermodel Cindy Crawford; long before Melissa Etheridge sold millions of copies of her 1993 album, Yes I Am, and in so doing came out as a gay rock star; and long before the singer-songwriter Jill Sobule’s ‘I Kissed a Girl’ hit the Billboard charts, the folk singer Alix Dobkin chopped her hair off, formed a band and recorded Lavender Jane Loves Women.” – The New York Times
