I am still only dating myself, these days. But..I have started having conversations with others about what dating is in regard to dating another person. I can't believe I am so ignorant in this area! But, within a year or so of coming out, the Feminist "movement" hit the San Francisco area and dating between lesbians seemed to get pushed out the window along with Butch & Femme.
In high school I didn't date because I wasn't interested in guys. I did hang out with my girlfriends, a lot. But they were as femme as I was and not latent lesbians, anyway. Plus, back then, even the "free love" attitude of the hippies in San Francisco did not include owning oneself as "gay" in the high schools of the city.
I think I've actually been practicing dating on myself the past few years and I'm a pretty good date, now;-) Maybe, someday I'll get good enough at it that I will actually date someone else! What a concept:-)
