    Hello,

    My name is Carol from the USA.

    I don't know what to really post here except this post is a long time coming.

    After much soul searching and realizing what I was repressing and why I am still
    a virgin well into my 40's, I do prefer woman.

    It is easier for me to cling to the "protective" word of virgin than to the "shameful" (to me) label of lesbian.

    I look forward to chatting with you and thank the admins for creating this forum.

    All the Best.

    Hi Carol and welcome to the community. Feel free to read and participate in the forum, sharing your experiences and/or questions. There are quite a few members who have come out later in life, and have started to live their lives to the fullest only recently, or are still trying to figure things out. If you would like, have a look at the LGBT Later in Life forum. You might be able to find a few good discussions that you can identify with. And of course, please don't hesitate to create your own thread(s) about the things you would like support/help with.

    Welcome to EC. :slight_smile:
