Definition & Meaning of "kitty puncher"in English

What is the origin of the term "kitty puncher" and how is it used?

Kitty puncher is a slang term that appeared in mid-20th-century English as a derogatory label for a lesbian woman. The word combines "kitty," a slang term for female genitalia, with "puncher," implying forceful or aggressive action, creating a crude reference to sexual activity. Historically, it was highly insulting, used to mock or demean lesbian women. Today it is considered vulgar and offensive, and its use outside historical or critical discussions of queer slang would almost certainly be insulting.
