With an exception in High School (so I did not get beaten up), I have only been involved with females/women -- am attracted to femininity. To most people I must look like a butch Lesbian, yet a few people know the truth.<br /><br />I find it increasingly discouraging to have to choose a "sex" on informational paperwork where I have to choose just one. For the most part there are only two choices and I am not really comfortable choosing either one. I have started choosing "male" as this is my goal just not a reality.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17580078610622282029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-82710074356266415462009-11-28T23:50:57.025-05:002009-11-28T23:50:57.025-05:00Same gender loving male.Same gender loving male.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-34340890845339938452009-11-28T22:38:25.180-05:002009-11-28T22:38:25.180-05:00Good question!

Straight people don't make me insecure, so I identify more often as "lesbian" around them...and "one of the nice ones." My girlfriend HATES the word "queer" so it's "lesbian" around her, but when I came out to my mother, I used the word "queer."<br /><br />Was that answer convoluted enought for you?

As a 60 yr old female, I have had 4 significant relationships (years of monogamy)- 2 w/women (always butch) and 2 w/men (always bear like), yet I am not a particularly feminine woman. I am very self-sufficient and my son refers to me as a lipstick lesbian or a fellagirl, but no one would ever look at me and think anything other than hetero. I always said I was bi but believe myself to truly be pansexual. Fun fact: my 24 yr old son is gay and we often find ourselves attracted to the same people!Judiehttp://twitter.alternativemom.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-11774626825237920502009-11-28T14:38:15.290-05:002009-11-28T14:38:15.290-05:00I'm a submissive pansexual male.
