    Question to LGBT people (lesbians in particular)

    I am very sorry if what I ask of you is offensive - and it definitely is, but... did your sexual practices just come naturally to you, or was it something you came up with in the process and/or saw/learned somewhere?

    As I have written already in another thread of mine, I'm writing a series of stories that have a few LGBT main characters, and I am not certain whether to include any sexual scenes (which will probably be rather chaste and short - I am writing from a first-person PoV, so there will be much more focus on emotions rather than the act itself) or at least implications that they happened in them. Since the lesbian characters are just teens at the moment of the story and they grew in a society where (female, at least) homosexuality is not really a thing, I am not sure if their relationship would actually involve any physical closeness or just be purely romantic.

    That is why I ask you (asking my male, young, straight/bi co-writer did not help for obvious reasons). Judging by your own lives and experiences, when the duration of the same-sex female relationship is short and homosexuality is repressed, would two girls in love eventually... ahem... figure out what to do?

    I honestly think you can answer this for yourself. :icon_bigg

    You are straight. What if I asked you the question?

    Thus, I think the conclusion is quite clear. =) Things usually come naturally, but you can definitely learn new techniques/things on the way. =)

    A lot of us haven't even had any sexual experiences (myself included), so it just comes naturally. It's not really different than other people quite honestly. You'd be surprised at how many straight people hate penetration or have weird and odd kinks, so It's really just a matter of figuring yourself out.

    i think it comes naturally. i mean anyone who tells you that they haven't googled something for advice and/or seen a little porn before they got their freak on is definitely lying to you. nobody wants to leave a bad impression. but if you're asking if i sat in my room and thought long and hard about what i was going to do - no. sex is a natural act among all living species.

    Alright, thank you and sorry for a very retarded question!

    I'll probably imply a little bit of physical closeness between the two then.

    Wow.

    Wow.

    When did you do that? Is that even legal?

    /EDIT/ Sorry, misunderstood you. Thought you did it *with* a 12-year old girl (presumably recently), got creeped out a bit.

    I started with men, and my first time with a woman only came when I was a little older. I guess I'd seen porn so that would give anyone a rough idea, but since then my practices have evolved into less gay sex and more of just whatever comes naturally, and I came to that decision alone.
    I think in most instances of female gay sex it bears almost no similarity to porn that caters to the male gaze. The French film 'Blue Is The Warmest Colour' follows the story of a young girl who meets a lesbian and falls in love, and there are a few quite interesting sex scenes where she's experimenting. So far that's been the most 'natural' representation of lesbian sex I've seen in popular culture.
    But everyone does it differently.

    Yeah, ok. I think you want to ask yourself a serious question: "Am I truly non-homophobic enough to write sensitively about homosexual characters in stories?" The OP question wasn't retarded...just one that a little open-mindedness could have answered on its own. But that in addition to this readiness to see pedophilia in the LGBT community does make me ask the question. And it's one that as a writer you should be asking yourself.
     
  15. That's exactly what I was thinking. Add to that the whole "this question is retarded" comment.


    As far as my own personal answer to this question goes... Don't most people masturbate? Sex is a very natural thing. Obviously techniques are shaped over time, but the basics should come naturally. It's not like lesbian sex is any less "natural" than straight sex. I would argue that it's actually much easier to figure out.

    I am non-homophobic enough by Russian standards... not sure about Europe, though. I do try to be tolerant, but it is not always easy, especially if so many people around you - even the person whom you once thought to be in love with - are not.

    That being said, although I am no Annie Proulx, I think I can write a LGBT relationship fairly decently (or at least not to fail horribly at that). Just for you to know, neither of the LGBT couple in my fic are particularily mentally unstable (one of them is rather nasty but it is mostly related to her being racist/speciesist/bigoted), they *are* going to survive the main plot (I contemplated killing off one of them, but it was mostly to give the other a Lost Lenore-type backstory), and both of them have defining traits other than their sexuality.

    And they won't be used for cheap fanservice either; although (kinda) attractive, neither of them are described as supermodels. I am better than that.

    I am *very* sorry. I mean, really. Forgive me, I just got a bit unnerved.

    Your assumption has some very VERY serious implications if it were true. Lets make this abundantly clear: you were unnerved because of what YOU ASSUMED and what was going on in YOUR head, which has absolutely nothing to do with me or my response. You dont get to just brush it off and go "oh, oops! i'm so sorry"

    I personally have a problem with people saying they're "tolerant". It suggests that there is something wrong, but one "tolerates" it. It's not a matter of tolerance, it's a matter of acceptance. Just putting it out there.

    Accepted might be another word to use it.

    I just use the language I am used to.
