[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to a small liberal arts college in NY in the 1990's. [b]I had 4 friends who identified as lesbian, only dated women and were very active in the LGBT groups.[/b]

All 4 are married to men and have children now (in our late 30's).

So obviously I do think a lot of this is finding identify, finding a group, finding a cause. I think it is a huge disservice to those that are truly gay (I don't know how else to say it?) but wouldn't know for sure obviously if that is an issue or not [/quote]

Do they now think of themselves as straight?

Also, what does "truly gay" mean, and who decides? Do you think that your college friends were fakely gay?[/quote]

Isn't the answer to your last question obvious?  Of course they were. [/quote]

I have friends who are women who identified as lesbian in college and had relationships with women. Many of them are now married to (or divorced from) men. If you only knew them now, you would assume that they were straight. But they're not.

I also have friends who are men who had relationships with men in college (although did not identify as gay). All of them are now married to (or divorced from) women. If you only knew them now, you would assume that they were straight. But they're not.

I also have friends who are women who used to be married to men and are now married to women, as well as friends who are men who used to be married to women and are not married to men. If you only knew them then, you would assume that they were straight. But they're not.

I am a woman who is married to a man and has only ever had relationships with men. But there are definitely women I find sexually attractive. Am I straight?[/quote]

I'm sorry this is so hard for you to understand. Yes, honey, you are.[/quote]
