At a 60% women college with 25% lesbian/bi that is 45% straight women.
At a women’s college where 80% (conservative number; probably much higher) are lesbian/bi that is 20% straight women.
So the best way for a woman to be around other straight women, where they are not a small minority being subjected to the “female gaze,” is to avoid women’s colleges altogether.
Obviously that is the antithesis of why women’s colleges were established in the first place and what made them great. Their time has passed.

not sure what you have against women's colleges or gay people.

I like diversity; women’s colleges do not have a diversity of women. They are therefore “women’s colleges” in name only. Sad statement though it may be, co-ed colleges have more female diversity.

Most women do not consider women’s colleges not because of lack of male access, but because they are made uncomfortable being their “straight” selves. By definition, then, women’s colleges are now anti-women.

why do you not believe the people who actually went there? so weird.

What? My straight D has never said she's been made to be uncomforable being straight. Her college is very affirming of all.

A few straight women (and there are very few) in the WNBA have tried to make similar claims about not being “made to feel uncomfortable.”

But I don’t think anyone believes them.
