Amongst those interviewed are Dawn O'Donnell (off camera at the beginning of the documentary) and psychiatrist Dr Neil McConaghy (the Australian 'expert' in aversion therapy). Some women are interviewed in shadow or close-up to disguise their identity. Women speak about being discriminated when applying for jobs against because of their sexuality. Dr Neil McConarghy is interviewed about his shock therapy work to change sexual orientation. Surprisingly Dr McConarghy says that homosexuality might be of benefit to society as creative traits or traits of non-conformity might give society as a whole the ability to survive.

Progressive
Primary
The film's central thesis explicitly promotes progressive ideology by celebrating and normalizing lesbian identity and relationships, aligning with contemporary discourse on identity politics and social justice.
The movie is entirely dedicated to exploring lesbian relationships, showcasing an explicit focus on a non-majority sexual orientation. Its narrative strongly emphasizes this theme, implicitly challenging traditional heteronormative narratives by making a marginalized identity central to its story.
Secondary
The film 'Love Is Love: Lesbians' likely offers a positive and affirming portrayal of lesbian characters and their relationships. Its title suggests a narrative dedicated to validating queer love, depicting individuals with dignity and celebrating their experiences and identities.
The film implicitly critiques the prevailing Christian-influenced societal norms of the 1960s that condemned lesbian relationships. By celebrating the characters' love and identities, the narrative positions Christianity as a source of societal judgment and oppression.
The 1966 film 'Love Is Love: Lesbians' is a documentary centered on cisgender lesbian women. It does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes, consistent with the historical understanding and depiction of gender identity in that era.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
This 1966 film explores lesbianism and is not an adaptation of existing source material with pre-established characters, nor does it reboot legacy roles. Consequently, there are no characters whose canonical or historical gender could be swapped.
The film is presented without any specified source material, historical figures, or prior canonical character depictions. Without an established baseline for character races, it is not possible to identify any instance of a race swap according to the definition.
