    Their aren't any lesbian bars in my town as I'm finding out from people and if I want to go to a lesbian bar I have to travel very far . The gay bars as I heard from a few lesbians I met are full of straight girls and gay guys and not many lesbians go to them . What is my best bet ? Most of the bars in my town is for lgbt but not specifically for lesbians .
    Would going to an lgbt center be better ? what do I do ?:help:

    I don't know the situation in the U.S. but, yeah, lgbt centres sound better. Maybe there's a LGBT group with the same hobby as you? Or a LGBT volunteering group? Or you could even start a group by yourself? :icon_wink

    You are right, this is difficult. By best friend is a lesbian (she hates that label so hopefully she won't see this post :icon_wink) and she has a really difficult time meeting other women. I think the best thing you can do is network. Find a few lesbians to be friends with and meet others through them. It really only takes a few connections and then it snowballs. My friend is very athletic and met a few lesbians playing softball and being part if the biking community. I know that sounds stereotypical but a lot of lesbians do seem to enjoy sports and outdoor activities.

    I suffer from the same problem. I've found online dating or social networking (i.e. friends of friends) to be the best way to meet women. Having said that, I have very few lesbian women in my acquaintance!

    Like you, I'm a lipstick. It's even harder finding women that are femme and gay - they're harder to spot.

    Go to a support group and you'll meet a lot of lgbt people. Or try to find a PFLAG meeting.
