I’m interested in the lesbian focused community groups, Mary.
I really enjoyed your post “Late Arrivals”. It seems that when I am honest about the fact I was married before and had children, it’s like a red flag. The question is always asked are you sure or how do you know you want to be a lesbian? I have been turned down several times because I was married to a man. No matter how I try to explain myself they already have the opinion this isn’t what I really want. Even though I know this is what I want. I am 57 and I grew up in an age where I tried to fit in, by being good and marrying a man. I am not sorry for my children and I cherish every day I have them. I am happier than I’ve ever been making the choice to be a lesbian. Thank you for your insight.
Hi, I just found you on Facebook and what a breath of fresh air you are!!!
I am 53 and have only realized that I was a lesbian a couple of years ago…so your website and videos are most appreciated …..I married at 19 and had 3 beautiful children, all grown up and on their own. My husband passed away nearly 2 years ago, and although I loved him , I just new there was something missing , wrong? I have moved to another state (I’m in Australia) and started a new life. Only a hand full of my dearest friends know about my “new” path and they are brilliant about it. My children well I will come clean with them in the future…at the moment I’m just trying to find my feet in the Lesbian world! It is scary but oh so exciting! I am very much looking forward to being able to have access to your notes and videos…I cannot post on FB as my son is my friend and a lot of people don’t know and I’m not ready to open up as yet.
Thank you for what you are doing , it is wonderful!!
