The concluding chapter summarises the key arguments of the book, highlighting the interconnections between visibility, belonging and power in shaping lesbian experiences within LGBTQ + social spaces. It challenges dominant discourses that attribute lesbian invisibility to a supposed lack of desire for space, arguing instead that invisibility stems from a lack of critical exploration of lesbian everyday experiences of these spaces. This chapter reinforces the significance of inclusion and exclusion practices in LGBTQ + spaces and how these shape self-perception, recognition and feelings of belonging. It underscores how visibility can offer lesbians a sense of empowerment, acceptance and validation, while a lack of visibility can perpetuate marginalisation. Overall it argues that greater attention to lesbian visibility, both at everyday and scholarship levels, can begin to shift persistent narratives of lesbian invisibility. The final section reflects on the challenges and possibilities for creating more inclusive environments for lesbians within LGBTQ + spaces. Drawing on participants’ suggestions for improving Manchester’s Gay Village, the chapter considers if a more diverse range of spaces could foster a stronger sense of belonging. It concludes with personal reflections on changes observed in the Village since the research began in 2016 and hopes for its future.
