What it Means Being a Lesbian

The realization that you might be a lesbian may be new, or you may have always known. This site is for every Lesbian person hungry for answers and thirsty for a sense of belonging.

So what's the deal with sexual orientation?
Sexual orientation has to do with what gender you have feelings of attraction or affection towards. Homosexuality means that a person has these attractions and feelings towards a person of the same sex. The realization of our attraction towards one or both sexes can occur at any time in our lives. Also, it is very common to be confused about these questions. It is very hard to figure out what feelings are truly ours and what feelings come from the demands of society. Some of us realize that we are lesbians very early in life, for others that realization may take many years of personal experience.

Self acceptance
Awakening to sexuality is hard for everybody. When those feelings you discover in yourself are for the same sex, it may pose a few extra challenges because it doesn't "fit" with what we thought would be and because it may scare you because of what society expects us to be. So one of the first things to do when you discover that you might be a lesbian is to seek information.

The FARUG team will always be available to address any concerns you may have about your sexuality.

Being a lesbian is just a part of you, it doesn't change you in any way. It's sort of like discovering something new about you that was there all along. It's just a little part of you; it doesn’t change your personality, your aspirations in life, your potentials or your professional aspirations. We have many sides to us, being a lesbian is just one of them
