Thank you for your kind words Leanne.
Some of what you said I can certainly relate to, ie the examinations. One memory is still soo vivid in my mind, where the surgeon who was to operate on me brought a group of interns around and they all looked at me - totally exposed. What is an 8 year old girl to do, when all her life she's been told to do what an adult tells her.
I don't think any of this has had an impact on my sexuality. Before the operations I always remember having liked girls in a way that wasn't "normal".
I guess the reason I want to meet other gay women is to talk about things relating to sex, ie - feeling inadequate, not "normal" and most lesbian relations tend to be quiet intimate if you take my meaning and I don't know if it would be totally appropriate to speak about this sort of thing on this message board.
Does this make sense?
