Love for a representative of his gender causes different emotions in people. Someone treats such a feature with understanding, others perceive negatively. And some people do not care how others live.
Homosexuality
The topic of homosexuality is especially discussed in society. This is due to the fact that men of non-traditional sexual orientation openly declare themselves, and do not hide their connection. Women behave differently. They do not flaunt their emotions. Therefore, same-sex female love does not cause special outbursts in society. In fact, such relationships exist and are part of society. This article will focus on lesbians and their lifestyle.
What is meant by the term “lesbian”?
It should be said that lesbianism has existed for a long time. Same-sex female love has been described by historians since ancient times. It is also known that this behavior of women was previously considered a deviation from the norm, and such experts as psychologists and psychotherapists have encountered with it in their work. The history of the emergence of such a term as lesbianism began about three millennia ago.
Lesbianism is described as a homosexual relationship between women. Girls who enter into intimate and emotional relationships with other women are commonly called lesbians. This terminology has not changed for many years. It is also known that lesbianism, from a scientific point of view, has more complex underlying causes than male homosexuality. That is, doctors note that the reasons why a woman becomes a lesbian are hidden, therefore in some cases they cannot be recognized at first sight.
Why do women prefer same-sex love?
How to recognize a lesbian? Signs are certain. We will consider them further. Now we will tell why women prefer same-sex love.
Female sexual nature is complex and multifaceted. There is an opinion of medical specialists in the field of psychiatry who believe that not all girls who position themselves as lesbians are actually like that. There are some women who are involved in this direction by other women. That is, real lesbians seduce completely normal women and persuade them to lesbianism, although they are actually normal women or girls without any psychological or mental deviations. Also, some girls switch to homosexual relationships for some reason. For example, an unsuccessful union with a man or some other circumstances.
There is also statistics that lesbians include 4 percent of the total female population of the planet. According to sociologists, there are as many homosexual men. There are spurts of discussion of lesbians in society, and sometimes there is a lull. In any case, the number of women who choose same-sex love does not increase or decrease. Their number is always on the same level.
It should be said that some women may be in a relationship with representatives of their gender for some time, and after a few years they can calmly marry and have children.
The well-known doctor of psychiatry Freud said that girls are bisexual. That is, they can have a relationship with their own and the opposite sex. They may be sexually attracted to both women and men. This is explained by the fact that in childhood the child is attached to the mother, and this applies to both boys and girls. At a subconscious level, this instinct remains with each person. With age, he may never wake up, and attraction to another woman may intensify.
When a girl grows up, then she has a determination of who she prefers sexually, a man or a woman. Namely, she chooses who is more attractive to her. As a rule, this choice is not individual, as it is imposed by society, family and traditions, so the girl chooses a man. In the future, as she grows older, she can reorient herself and gain sexual experience with a representative of the weaker sex. It is possible that her partner will be older and engage her in lesbianism.
Categories
Lesbians can be divided into three categories (the characteristics of each type of lesbian woman are described below):
- True lesbians. This category includes women who have a relationship only with representatives of their gender. Relations with men do not interest them; they never had sexual contact with them. Or their experience was unsuccessful.
- Bisexual women. This category includes the fair sex, who may have a love relationship with representatives of both sexes. They can be married and have lovers.
- Random lesbians. There are cases when a woman was involved in a homosexual love relationship. She does not continue them, gets married and no longer returns to this topic throughout her life.
Bisexual nature
How to recognize a lesbian woman? All of the above women consider themselves to be representatives of non-traditional sexual orientation.
However, from a medical point of view, true lesbians and bisexuals are of interest. In addition, there are polls that indicate that about half of the women had sexual experience with women. This fact suggests that women have a bisexual nature.
The history of lesbianism. The legend of Zeus and the beautiful lady
There is historical evidence that lesbians appeared in Greece. There is a beautiful legend about how Zeus fell in love with a beauty who lived on an island called Lesbos. Zeus fell in love with her and seduced in every possible way, but did not receive reciprocity in response. She refused him all the time. Then Zeus was angry and destroyed the entire male population of the island. Including boys. For a long time, only women lived on the island. Even the ships did not sail to the island, Zeus did not let them in, as he was angry because of the failure of the beauty.
Forty years later, when the sailors managed to land on the island, they found that women learned how to do well without a male. Namely, some of the girls took on male functions, including sexual ones. Sailing sailors were surprised and amazed at the skills of women.
Another story

Also, women's love was described as subtle, tender. She was more beautiful and sophisticated than the usual relationship between a man and a woman.
