"Feminism Made Me a Lesbian"
Sue Wilkinson, professor of Feminist and Health Studies at Loughborough University, was a "happy heterosexual" with a successful marriage — until wallowing in moonbattery for a living turned her into a lesbian.
Professor Wilkinson tells her story:
I was never unsure about my sexuality throughout my teens or 20s. I was a happy heterosexual and had no doubts. Then I changed, through political activity and feminism, spending time with women's organizations. It opened my mind to the possibility of a lesbian identity.
She divorced her husband of 17 years and started cohabitating with her new "partner," Professor Celia Kitzinger of York University.
Wilkinson continues:
I'd had a very happy marriage and a very good relationship with men. My husband took it very badly.
And all this time I thought people were born homosexual, and there was no such thing as free choice.

On a tip from Wiggins.

Big surprise. Feminist ~ lesbian. Just like "progressive" ~ socialist.

"My husband took it very badly." Gee, ya think?

Do they have to look like that? Why can't they ever be hot? Are there any hot lesbians outside of Porn?
What's the point of being a lesbian if you "partner"
with a woman that looks like a man? Doesn't that defeat the purpose?

That guy on the right needs a haircut in a bad fashion.

Homosexuality, genetic defect or deviate choice? In either case, on the fringe of the distribution and therefore abnormal.

Homosexuality - (Most) Religions have no use for it and no place in Darwinism. What a dilema!!!

Agree with Pam. Can't understand women who are turned off by men, then become lesbians, partnering women who look more like a man than a man does.

Penis envy.

The amazing part is that the husband didn't turn gay first. He had reason.

>>>What's the point of being a lesbian if you "partner" with a woman that looks like a man?

and ugly male features kept you there?

The fem-libs can keep these bow wows. Tammy Bruce- now thats my kind of lesbian! Hot and conservative.

As Van Helsing noted, this dike told on herself...she had no ambitions about lesbianism until she absorbed the "religion" of feminism. So much for "genetic influence". I firmly believe that like all sins, queerdom can be a temptation for almost anyone given the right circumstances (upbringing, environment, abuse, isolation etc.).

Let's see her partner has an adam's apple, large hands but is a woman?
Posted by: Thomas Jackson at July 2, 2007 10:20 PM
I'm guessing the husband probably didn't take it as badly as she thinks.

I didn't know Jeff Daniels real name was Kitzinger!

This is the second time I have heard of something like this happening. The person I knew divorced her husband after several internet chatroom sessions to start a lesbian affair. She had the gall to beg me to tell her husband of her intentions.

Speaking as one who has large hands and an adam's apple...
Those of us born butt-ugly or with congenital problems can't help how we look, and corrective plastic surgery isn't covered by insurance. We're talking $20,000-$120,000 here.
In terms of sexual chemistry, I'm straight, but wish I wasn't. Not being unkind to guys - some of my best friends are male - it's just that women are more sympatico. Too bad they do nothing for me, when guys do.
Did you know that between 1% and 2% of human beings are Intersexed? Most appear asymptomatic - if you've borne three children, it doesn't matter in practice that you're chromosomally male, for example. But for some, a normal life is something we desperately wish for, while knowing that it can never be attained. We just try to be the best Humans we can be, regardless of our ambiguous looks.

Zoe,
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Don't worry about it.

Well I see they've solved their problems. The husband just put on a wig and claimed he was a big, giant, ugly lesbian woman, and they lived happily ever after.

Don't think the comments were geared toward intersexed folks Zoe...apologies if it looked that way. There's a world of difference between the genetically intersexed and those who felt like changing their "orientation" in midstream without cause other than they got "religion" from the secular dark side. If Kitzinger is intersexed then can't find much fault there. Not possible to say that for her formerly hetero partner however.

...Also, the true incidence of intersexed folks is closer to 0.018%...not 1-2%
