Well, I have been absent for some time.  Life.  Still a lesbian.  Still after marriage.  There are some pluses to that as in I have 3 children from my marriage, and now 4 awesome grandchildren.

I have reduced my workload and have more time this year, and have had the END of a relationship which I thought would last forever.  Well, it didn't.  Major loss and grief going on, so time to break out and move on.
As I started to say, however,during this extra time, I've become somewhat obsessed with binge watching and finding lesbian characters.  youtube has been a great tool in helping me expanding my horizons.  There is really more out there than I ever thought.  I have been on Australian TV.

So why the binge watching and focus on the lesbian characters?  It has evolved as none of this was not intentional in the beginning.  But I have been very pleased to find some powerful, gorgeous women and in a way, after feeling beaten down, it is nice to aspire to the powerful again.  These woman characters have helped.

Another aspect is watching how the women treat each other when there is a kindness in the relationship and respect.  Being respected was an issue for me in the last couple of years, so I love seeing relationships where women (and men) treat each other with love and respect.  YES. 

Back in the day - one of my tongue-in-cheek phrases - there was so little to watch and see and it was more shock therapy if there was a same-sex relationship anywhere.  And there was so many obstacles and unhappiness. 
So, check out the internet - google, youtube, find all the characters.  One option is foreign tv also, because they usually have English subtitles.  So, in the process I'm seeing different cultures.  Now, admittedly, a lot of these relationships are founded on thin ice and fall apart easily.  Some are "soap opera" style.  I notice when I see these 18 year olds being lesbians - I honor that, but often times the girls are superficial.  Bothers me.  But I guess even at 18, I wasn't able to do that. 

I will write more later and give you all some ideas of what to watch, but just being back among fellow lesbians has helped.  Therapeutic, so to speak.  There is so much to say and do.  I have also found some Lesbian facebook pages, but not much is going on in that arena.  Dating websites??
Later.
