A female reader, anonymous, writes (21 January 2007):

So you're attracted to women... What's wrong with that? They are beautiful, simply the best. Go with it. Specially that you are a mature woman as I see from your age. I have a boyfriend too but always sleep with a woman on the side, without telling anyone. I can't live without it. It is amazing . Try it. Don't feel guilty. Be careful with whom you sleep though, for your privacy. I usually choose married women because they are discrete. Enjoy it and let me know how it was for you!

Amethyst agony auntNo one can say for sure why this is happening, but my idea on the situation is that perhaps you are curious about females due to bad relationship with males. I've heard it happen numerous times before. You can't really help it, and from what I know, everyone wonders time to time. Do what you think is best/what makes you happy, and don't care what others think.

Good luck!

A reader, anonymous, writes (21 January 2007):

Freud didn't say we're all bisexual . He theorized that everyone has a potential to be bisexual at some point in their life. For Freud, anything but heterosexual vaginal penatrative sex was a sexual deviance and a perversion. He thought this was "normal"; normal in the sense that these perversions were a means to an end; i.e. reproduction.

I think we could only speculate on why you find yourself attracted to women. I would say though that just because you are heterosexual does not mean you can only be attracted to men. There's nothing wrong in seeing sexual beauty in all things that are, in essence, beautiful. People have felt save putting sexuality and gender in to over-simplified boxes for too long. Desire is complex, you feel an attraction towards a women, accept that attraction. It doesn't necessarily mean anything.

d4u04 agony auntDuring time, sexual feelings may well change or sway one way more than the other, it's normal, don't get hung up on this fact. So what if you are attracted to a woman? It might just be a subconscious desire to know what sex with a woman is like. It could be a number of things but don't let it get you down, just keep enjoying your life and let the chips fall where they may =] x

cd206 agony auntWell if you believe Freud we're all bisexual. I guess sometimes, at certain periods of your life you feel like you women are a better bet, especially if you've had lots of bad experiences with men. Or maybe it's just a suppressed emotion from your adolescence/early adulthood and you're actually a lesbian. It's hard to tell from the information you've given so just give it a while and see if you still feel like this in a few months!
