Why women are attracted to women

For me it’s a lot of what the other ladies have already stated. I like the curves, the feminine appearance, the softness, the delicate-nature, the scents and smells, the sound of a woman’s voice…

I tend to agree with some of the other posters that men and women have different ways of perceiving and interfacing with the world. We are biological creatures so to me this is just obvious. That’s not to say we shouldn’t both be treated with respect, but as a lesbian I have no issue acknowledging that nature made us with different roles in mind.

All of that is to say, that I generally just appreciate the female “energy” much more. I find it attractive, comforting, and stimulating. The male energy certainly has its place, but I don’t have any interest in receiving it in the same way personally. It doesn’t excite me or entice me.

I just love women’s bodies. I feel like we are way more vulnerable when we are naked, both spreading for each other

total agree

All this brain wiring stuff is probably right.

I must be broken somehow.

I fire people without remorse and make some dam harsh decisions. Order people around; In my defence, I try to be nice about it. I snarl and growl, and don't mind farting in public.

I come home, take my boots off, put my smelly bare feet up on the coffee table, put something I like on the TV and glare at anyone who looks like they have something to say about it.

I also like children and helping others out. I wear feminine clothing when I can. Cute T-shirts, skirts, and dresses.Totally love my pets and horses.

Sometimes I confuse myself. Am I a girly looking butch or is that bitch?

You're OK, cause you left out grab a beer.

For bi women, is it just me or is a women's body a big part of why you are into women?

Absolutely. I have no interest in men’s butts, but, the way women’s clothing hugs all the right places, like a bikini hugging tight to the outer edges of her butt, but keeping the top of her thighs and around her hips visible… I find this very erotic.

I am a “boobs girl” not a “butt girl”, but sometimes the shape of a woman is too beautiful to not adore all of it.

I don't know if this counts but I like looking at hot women and mostly a nice tone butts and perky boobs..but I don't see myself as Bi..

I prefer women on a romantic level, women make me curious, I want to know everything about a woman who attracts me. However, I enjoy sex more with men. I just don’t look at men and think “you’re gorgeous”.

This reminds me of the conversation a straight guy was having at a bar with a lesbian. ( i apologize in advance this is an old joke)

They were talking about women. The lesbian extolling the beauty of the female body, the touch the feel of her curves, breasts, hips, waist, legs and her lovely natural scent of her, kind of like fresh straw, the taste of her… on and on she went. The guy just then burst into tears. “Why are you crying” she asked? He replied, @ I just realized I may be a lesbian too!”

But no joke here, We are all wired differently, but I have always loved women. A tryst with a guy would be different, maybe even exciting, but my XY drives me to the XX.

@Rock49 I’ve heard several versions of that have been said in many venues. Best one was a rough an tough cowboy who who said questioned his sexual preferences.

I looked back and saw it had been 8 years since I replied to this question. With that said allow me to add an update.

Why am I attracted to another woman? Mainly because women are wired different from a man. With another woman we can go to a thrift shop and spend as much, or little time looking and trying things on and not feel rushed to leave. We can go to Hobby Lobby, find 3 mirrors we like, cannot decide then go back 3 hours later and get one. We love to dress up and just sit at a table and enjoy our martini or a pair of jeans at a bar drinking margaritas just being together just being left alone with each other.

Some time ago, she told me I had a good pair of pipes and I should try karaoke. Well it has been fun with me doing songs by Sinatra, Bob Seger, Kris Kristoferrson, I know a woman doing male singer’s songs. We are going to try Still The Same next time as her my backup singer.

And yes there is fun in bed. In college I quickly found out that most men were like a bull in a china shop. With another woman, there were times you never wanted it to end. Still make banana splits to eat in bed, use your imagination on that one and lot hot showers together are always something special.

One of the few, but there are many, reasons I still like women.

OMG....I've never posted here....

My attraction started in college. My roommate at the time rescued from a horrible relationship (with a male). We officially started dating the next night after the rescue. We were significant for 8 years then she split.

But during that time I became what I am today. In the past I preferred to dominate the whole adventure. It was easy for me to win over those woman who were curious. And bend them to my will. There were no complaints and they submitted freely.

Now that I'm older, yes still a dominant but its not the main driving force. My current is on the east coast mist of the time so time together is sparse. But we are very comfortable. For me snuggling with a bare woman is more enjoyable than a hairy male with muscles or flab..just...ew.

She endures my need for John Wick or the Matrix or any of the Under Worlds or any Sandra Bullock movies and, of course, Star Wars.

A dominant nerd, who knew.

She joins me playing table top games or going to the shooting range or riding motorcycles. Or going out for a drink and she listens while I watch music being performed. These are grand evenings when they happen.

Oh and yes the sex is wonderful as well. Everyone should have their very own Amazon Warrior.

Bad Princess said You're OK, cause you left out grab a beer.

I grab a root beer and a mug of tap water, and a hand full of pet treats on my way @bedwetter_bobby . Take my pants off before I sit down. Wait for people snacks to magically appear. On really good days, a cat brings me a dead mouse.

No, I don't eat it.

@Amy93 - I agree that admiring another woman for her beauty, or for men a guy because he is handsome does NOT mean you are Bi. On the other hand, if you find yourself sexually attracted to that individual, you are at least Bi-curious.

Hell if I knew why I'm into women rather than men. I tried to find out and dissect and psychologize and analyze every single bit of it, even thinking I could become straight again once I fixed whatever made me that way, like if I got rid of all my trauma maybe I could become a normal straight woman again, or simply unlock my bisexual side. Enjoy the thought of having a man's penis thrusting into my body. The thought of swallowing cum or have a man ejaculate into my insides. But first, I think unless I break my own psyche apart completely, there isn't any way I can "fix" all that is wrong inside, because some of said wrong things are baked into my personality and aren't even that "wrong" if you think about it, just inconvenient or not in phase with the society and culture we live in today. Some of my traits would be better accepted in other cultures that value them, so they're not "wrong". Just different.

Second... I've just always been into women. I remember my first crushes being female the whole time. Can't explain why or how. It's just how I'm wired really.

[edit: I didn't see this was for bi women my bad, but I guess my opinion as a lesbian might be relevant]
