They're doing a stock review at my university's library. Amongst the class marks up for culling are:

305.3 Gender and also men
305.4 Women including feminism
305.90664 Lesbians and Gay men

Admittedly this has the look of a piecemeal, evolving, much-tinkered-with system, rather than something anybody's thought up from scratch, but even so - who could find in this a satisfactory approximation to reality? John Wilkins would be spinning.
