Link The rise of mid-life lesbians
Quote from the article:
"The neurologist Dr Louann Brizendine writes, in The Female Brain, that 40-plus women get itchy feet because they stop producing the hormones that make them want to nurture and coddle needy husbands. When I first started dating men after 15 years of having relationships only with women, a straight friend took me aside and pointed out that, in reality, men were more like women are supposed to be: needy, insecure and vain.
The middle-aged, middle-class well of loneliness that is Mumsnet can vouch for that. There you find many lesbian-fantasy posts, from the ?My fantasies about women have been a boon to my married sex life? type to the ?I am overwhelmingly attracÂted to a woman and my feelings are all over the place? cry for help. StanÂdard advice is to berate any would-be Orbachs with a ?Shame on you? line about how bad it is to cheat on your husband and kids.
Hmm lol!
