When did you guys realize you were lesbian?
I (16F) still don’t know if I’m bisexual or actually lesbian. A part of me just says I’m bisexual because i might have a bit of internalized homophobia? But it’s also hard to explain because I’m super proud of liking girls and I love anything sapphic related. Whether that’s art, books or media representation, I’m all in for it. As for heterosexual media, I couldn’t care less about it.
But i still don’t know if I’m actually lesbian or have a super high preference for females? Like everything i consume is sapphic and i can see myself in a relationship with a woman, but i also admit im sexually attracted to males too, more specifically the parts? But I don’t think im romantically attracted to men, as in i would not see myself dating a man. Im also not physically attracted to males either? I could easily find an average looking girl more attractive than a conventionally attractive looking boy if that makes sense. The only thing I’m certain of being attractive to is well “male” parts.
So if I had the option to be in a romantic relationship with a man or a trans woman, I’d probably end up with the trans woman. Does that sound transphobic and invalidating? I hope not.
Has anyone also experienced this? And if so, what are your thoughts and how did you personally figure yourself out.
