Can a lesbian go straight


Hi there skzly, good to notice from you on this thread, and that you've been doing some research and self reflection. Also glad to hear that you have some great LGBTQI+ friends around you, that is great. I'm sorry to perceive that this is a really frustrating feeling for you at the moment, you're totally right that it can feel this way despite knowing that as you mentioned, there is no rush to work it all out right now.

Firstly on the topic of wlw erotica and media in general, you may find Autostraddle a great place to start. There are lots of great media recommendations (both your "regular" books, films and TV shows with queer women in them, and sexually explicit content) , and they do have an erotica series they host themselves under their A+ banner.

You may find that different formats of erotica, porn etc. do or don't carry out things for you, so potentially erotica more your thing when it comes to arousal than visual porn. Also, yes it is quite normal to include things that you enjoy fantasizing about but wouldn't want to do in real life, as Heather mentions in our article "Yes, No, Maybe, a

7 Signs You Are Not Straight Even if it’s Later in Life

There is no timeline for self-discovery and no end to development. As we grow older, we can come to verb a wide variety of things about ourselves that we hadn’t realized before or that hold changed over time, often because we are growing more adj and confident as we age. 

Sexuality is no exception. Sexuality can be a lifelong discovery, and something that takes time to fully understand, particularly for women who realize they aren’t straight later in life. It can be confusing, especially as an adult to be questioning your sexuality and wondering if all these years you somehow missed something big about yourself. You are not alone. Here are seven common signs that you may not be straight, even if you discover and verb it later in life.  

 1. Straight girls don’t lie awake at night wondering if they are gay.

This may seem obvious, but people who aren’t attracted to the same sex, don’t usually worry about whether or not they are gay or bisexual. They don’t even think about experiencin

What Becoming a Lesbian Taught Me about Being Straight

One of the first friends I came out to was a woman a lot like me.

We’d both been raised Catholic and were white women of a certain class and liberal sensibility. Balancing mothering and working. Critical of and still participating in the patriarchy.

I called her from the back porch at my girlfriend’s house around in the morning after driving forty miles roundtrip to take my daughter to school.

I don’t remember what I said to her but I do remember what she said to me: “This is good,” she said. “From twenty miles away, you can transition to a new life more easily.”

She was saying I could endure mothering and also have my space. To sit high up on the rough wood of a balcony overlooking a forest and write in my journal, remember, feel, cry, heal, appear to terms with what I’d done and who I was becoming. And still, pick my daughter up from school on time.

She was right.

But there were some layers to what she said that I felt at the time, like earthquake tremors that don’t become an earthquake, and I shook them off then. B

Hi Lilly,

I (I am 22 years old) have been through this situation, not exactly but very similar. I tried to feel more feminine or be more loving and open and it just felt wrong to me. (I am more of a logical, quiet, down to soil, tom boy type girl.) I don&#;t like talking about furniture/decor, I don&#;t like talking about cooking, I don&#;t like jewelry. I like talking about spirituality, makeup, horses, love, romance, friendship etc. I am a adj person I can care less about what most women around me talk about (no offense to any of them I love them.) Which if you talk about that stuff great! I was just trying to point out something that in the past has made me feel less feminine or lesbian. I noticed that I tried to start changing myself because I am a straight female and wanted to be viewed as that. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being lesbian, the questioning angered me because it started making me verb &#;Are my interest different from straight women?&#; &#;Should I convert the way I talk, proceed, present myself?&#; &#;Am I feminine enough for the man I want?&#; &#;Am
