Being Raped Made Me More Attracted To Girls.

Sorry I can't quote, it crashes my Safari! This is in reply to Noa.

You assume I want children. I get flack for this all the time because I am 32, single, and have no plans for getting married and having kids. People think its sad, pathetic, and I'll die alone. But...you also assume that I can control my reaction to this stressor or trigger, as it I WANT to be this way. I DON'T. Do you think I enjoyed not going to my sisters wedding shower? No I didn't! I know she wanted me there, but there was a near certain chance of a panic attack as I freak out in a room of all women. I was not about to ruin this special time in her life! Men are safe to me. Then there's the assumption that I can even have kids in the first place. Not going to go there...

I used to have panic attacks if I was in the position of choosing to be alone with a man, not sexual activity itself mind you. I also had sexual feelings for women. I've found women attractive since I was in my mid teens and that could be for a number of reasons but ultimately it makes me feel safer in expressing and owning my dominant sexual desire.
