	Rep Power: 0  |  Hi from sister Mary 
			
			I'm a woman in midlife (wow I never wrote that before) tried and failed to be lesbian in the 80s. I think the problem was the lack of butches around me. In those days the message was that butch femme was patriarchal. I thought I couldn't be lesbian because I couldn't make myself be attracted to feminine women.it never occurred to me that I was only attracted to androgynous people and that that is ok.  Then I got in a relationship with a man  who was on the feminine side. Being bi in those days was also terribly uncool. Traitorous almost. So I felt I couldn't be part of the Gay Lesbian community  (bi and trans and queer hadn't  been added yet )although I looked on wistfully.  Fast forward 25 years I'm divorced (the guy I was married to had become a bully) and I find I only want to be with butch women ( and MTFs are so freaking attractive). So I think the prejudice against b-f lesbians and trans people from 1980s feminism certainly didn't help me. I had to wait until I was a middle age woman to understand who I am. |
