I’ve never had a girlfriend…hell, I don’t really know that many queer women IRL. Is this anyone else’s problem?

  I’m kinda in the same boat, never had a girlfriend and can’t seem to find any queer women in my city! The few I do manage to find are always either just passing through or in very committed LTRs =\

    I know women who are about ten to fifteen years older than me through political groups. I go to a queer friendly campus but I only know gay men, no lesbians. I know it’s about making yourself visible but I’m not visible AT ALL.

      I’m not exactly sure how to go about that other than wearing a shirt that says “YES I LIKE GIRLS” or something to that manner…
      Possibly visibility ties back into the description for this group – shy… anyone know ways to break this bubble??

      Idk, I’m pretty femme and nothing about me screams “alternative lifestyle”. A “YES I LIKE GIRLS” shirt may be appropriate…

  All of my friends are straight and I don’t know anyone who is even a little bit queer and female.
