Sexual Relationships 
Sexual Health 
As a young girl, I was thought that the only option for me was heterosexuality, so I learned to hide my desire to be intimate (not in the sexual sense of the word) with women. But as a grew up, and started to deeply question every aspect of my identity because of an interest in morality and philosophy. I realized that I viewed women the way I was taught to view men, I was 13 at the time.
Of course, I denied it, I thought it was not possible for me, the average person, would be a part of a minority (I learned after years of medical appointments that I am in fact a part of many minorities which isn't always easy to compute), funnily enough, I discovered I was attracted to women, really attracted to women, when I heard other women loving women (either bi or lesbian or other identities) describing their love for their girlfriend. That's when. it truly clicked for me.
(Previously, I based my view of sexual and romantic attraction the way it has been described to me by men in real life, on the internet and in medias) Now, I am slowly but surely getting comfortable with it, and truthfully, I am always amazed by other women inner and outer beauty, although I am aware that it is a result of socialization and not truly a "natural" trait.
I love women, big or small, curvy or lithe, hairy or not, feminine or masculine, with all types of hair, skin and ethnicity. My love for them is rooted in respect I didn't know I could feel, respect further solidified as I learned more and more about the hidden history of women, history that is not taught in high school for some reason.
I now read queer black feminists, and their experiences and knowledge on the social world is truly fascinating and eye-opening.
Unrelated to the last paragraph, but wow women.
