You Might Be A Lesbian...

Sexuality can be a complex subject. Some people go through their entire life feeling one thing, but acting out another. Many reasons contribute to this way of living…denial, fear, confusion and flat out ignorance to name a few. Numerous people will tell you that you're not actually gay unless you 'choose' to act on your same-sex curiosities. This statement, however, isn't complete. First of all, you don't get to hold the lesbian card just because you had one crazy fling with your BFF. Acting on sexual fantasies does NOT determine a persons sexuality. Yes, it's a good indicator, but that's all it is. Below, you will find some statements that may help you to clear up any lingering confusion you may have about your own sexuality…

If you answer 'Ellen Degeneres' to the question, "Who is your hero?"…You Might Be A Lesbian
If you hide in your room with the door locked to watch lifetime movies like, "The Truth About Jane"…You Might Be A Lesbian

If you really connected with the character, Darlene from Roseanne…You Might Be A Lesbian
If you put pictures of beautiful woman on your walls and cite the reason as, 'I appreciate all beauty', or 'I just love art'…You Might Be A Lesbian 
If at school, you start rumors about yourself being the easiest girl in the world to impregnate and take it even further by telling people that your mom got pregnant with you while she was on birth control and your dad used a condom (obvious goal being to ensure that no man wants to chance sleeping with you for fear of becoming your 'baby daddy')…You Might Be A Lesbian

If you feel a need to follow up all compliments you give to women with the sentence, 'Not in a lesbian way, or anything'…You Might Be A Lesbian 
If you read through all of these statements and 80% of them applied to you…You Might Be Are A Lesbian

Now, this isn't a full proof system to determine whether or not you are in fact a lesbian. These are just a handful of good indicators that you might want to weigh upon reflection of ones own sexuality. Coming to the realization that you're gay is not always a simple conclusion to reach. For most of us, denial prevents the truth from surfacing to even ourselves, for years. It is very important that you understand, you cannot choose what gender you will be drawn to. You cannot help it if you're not physically attracted to people of the opposite sex. You can't simply 'choose' your sexuality. All you can choose is whether to embrace it or deny it and hide it. If you're feeling depressed, afraid or alone please utilize the power of technology and reach out for support. No one should go down this road all by themselves.
