I agree--it CAN be confusing! I consider myself thoroughly straight, but I've encountered a few gals now & then that made me rather fervently wish I was born male!
One of my cousins, as well as my late BFF, are/were both gay. They both told me that they came to the realization early in puberty. They both told me they tried to be intimate with the opposite sex. While they could satisfy their partner, they realized that *they* got no satisfaction. So the cousin got divorced & has stayed single, the BFF never married.
Too bad our society is so homophobic. Too many people think that child molestation is limited to homosexuals. Trust me--it's NOT.
Gays & Lesbians deserve the same shot at happiness & success as the rest of us.
I consider myself a straight female but there are women I have known who I felt like I've almost fallen in love with
because they were just so awesome. Funny, creative, intelligent and easy to be around. That makes me want to be
around them more, but it doesn't translate to any sexual desire or even a need for affection from them. It just isn't
there. I guess you'd call it extreme admiration.
