In most gay relationships there is a dominent and a submissive partner. This is true for both gay men and lesbians but usually it is more prominent with lesbians.

If you interacted with many gay male couples you would see the dynamic there are well. It's my opinion that a masculine lesbian is far more prominient than a feminine male usually because a masculine lesbian dresses and acts far more like a man than a feminine male will dress and act like a woman.

Re: Lesbianism

I was once told by a lady friend that women simply don't have as many hang ups about it as men have about gays.

I've known straight women who seemed to also be open to this sort of thing. I think women have a different culture in some ways... especially those not in church. Thank GOD for the church.

Re: Lesbianism

I have heard/read that the relationship between fathers and daughters is very important in her identifying with the opposite sex. Also a mother and her sons.

Personally I treasure and appreciate my relationship with my late father. In 1958, my husband's female cousin introduced me to her brother and her cousin (my husband of 51 yrs). While her brother, with his dark sparkling eyes and dark hair, appealed to me, I was drawn to their first cousin. Why? He reminded me of my father. (mentor).

Through the years and even after my father's passing (21 yrs ago today), many times a mannerism, etc., would remind me of Dad. I resemble my late mother and sometimes I will glance over at my husband, while driving, and think, "we are so much like Mom and Dad! Like a repeat of their generation.

I believe it is important when choosing a lifetime companion, that we make sure GOD is in the choosing. This spouse will be the other parent of your children. If you wonder what this has to do with the subject of this thread, read on.

Back to the lesbian question?? Personally have known two girls that I have known in my lifetime, both younger. Both had fathers that couldn't accept them as a daughter when they were born. They wanted sons and didn't hide that fact. I rode in a car pool with a man (for a time before I was married. When his fourth daughter (no sons) was born, he was not happy and let it be known. Poor little _____ (boy's name, grew up and seemed to sense that she wasn't accepted, by her father, as a daughter. She is middle aged now and has lived openly as a lesbian for many years. Various partners. She dresses mannish and has a mannish hairstyle. See, I witnessed the time of her birth.
I have observed her through the years. No she wasn't born that way.

A neighbor whose granddaughter spent a lot of time at her grandmother's home and played with my little sister and oldest daughter growing up. She would dress like a boy and it was said that she would cry because she was not a boy. Her dad also did not accept her as a daughter when he wanted a son. He later had a son. but the damage had been done. She never married, dotes on her nieces and nephews (her sister's children). However she wears her hair in a very feminine style, shoulder length and dresses very feminine. As adults, both of these women are friendly and have pleasant personalities. Just so sad that their selfish fathers could not accept the gender God saw fit to give them. I don't know if N-- lives as a lesbian. Have heard she does, but really don't know.

Re: Lesbianism

I also know of a female basketball coach who was very mannish, etc. Know personally that several girls in her class turned out to be lesbians. Never married, lives with partners. One girl in this class married and then left her husband for another woman. Know of another girl who graduated from high school, married and had three children, left her husband and children, for a woman. Later left the other woman, etc..Reminds unmarried today. No, they weren't born that way. There are reasons these things happen. I am aware of many things that have happened through these 71 yrs. There is nothing new under the sun!

Re: Lesbianism

After many years of therapy I have finally embraced the fact that I am a lesbian trapped in a man's body.
