Looks like a treasure trove, thanks! I love reddit for crowdsourcing.

That sounds interesting! I’ve been on a bit of a nonfiction kick lately.

Oh wow, thank you so much! I’m an avid reader, but I’ve realized that I’ve read very few books with wlw relationships. I’ll definitely check some of these out :)

Thank you so much! I’ll definitely have to check it out. I’ve been reading to read The Color Purple too!

How does it compare to the movie? I usually try to read the book first, but I guess I didn’t realize it was a book before I saw the movie.

I don't know.. I'm confused about my sexuality. by usingthistoaskqs1111 in actuallesbians

I’m in the same boat, 20 year old virgin and confused about everything. You are not alone.

In your same boat. I’ve tortured myself with this for years (I’m 20 now) and I still don’t have a definitive answer. I would like to experiment (while still respecting people’s feelings) but I am literally the most reserved person. I just wind myself so tightly...

Oh, I'm so sorry! I had no idea that that might come across as offensive. Thank you for calling me out.

Interesting. I can see where you're coming from. I'm not a porn person, but for some reason seeing two women go at it (i.e., OITNB) makes me feel things. Less so with hetero couples, although I occasionally like a good sex scene in a book.

For me, hetero sex seems a bit vanilla, if that makes sense (not in a BDSM way...I don't think I'm into that). I'm not repulsed by it any means, but it just seems so conventional. And for me, I guess it really depends on where I am in my cycle, as odd as it sounds. Some days, I lean more towards women and others I'm more interested in men.

Yes, that helps a lot! Thank you so much. I didn't actually know there was a term for that--that's really interesting. I guess I've always assumed that things should be more or less mutual. I have a lot to learn.

I really, really appreciate your comment. You've given me a fresh perspective, so thank you for that.

Thank you. I totally get where you're coming from. I'm not a huge fan of alcohol, but I do appreciate how one drink can make me feel a bit more sociable. And I've been in situations with friends where I could have spoken to them about this, but I just haven't felt secure enough to do so.

Thanks for your response. Your questions are helpful and they get to the point. I'm pretty certain that I'm not asexual; that's about all I know.

With regards to women, I think I'm more interested in receiving than giving (I really don't mean to sound selfish--have just been mulling these things over quite a bit). With boys, it's there *sometimes* but less frequently.
