Who has kissed a woman? (Inspired by many recent threads)

So, out of curiosity due to quite a few recent threads on the topic, who of those who are in relationships with men have kissed women?

Have just realised at middle age that I never have, but am not opposed to the idea.. what is it like in comparison to men?

admittedly I am quite drunk and have a bit of a crush on a female friend

Yep, and I'm in a relationship with a wonderful woman now :-D. Also with a man, if that makes any difference.

The main difference with kissing is that she doesn't have a beard :-D

I've had a couple of drunken snogs with other women, but that's it. It was softer than with a man. No stubble!

I'm married to a man now, and I generally fancy big beardy sexy men with rugby player bodies and giant muscly legs and shoulders (like dh). However I do occasionally fancy women too. Non beardy, non giant women Wink. Like Holtzman in the new Ghostbusters. But I don't think I like the idea of sex with a woman. I do buy a lot of coffee from a local cafe when I have a perfectly good coffee machine at home just because I really fancy the woman who serves me. I don't know if this means I'm bisexual or not.

Anyone know? Grin

I have, ( & more ) but I'm not a lesbian or bi-sexual.

I have had a few flings with women but only ever had LTR's with men. I really enjoy kissing and more with women and find it incredibly sensual possibly even more so than with a man. I have been with dp (male) for 13 years now and even although we are happy I do feel a certain sadness that I will probably never kiss a woman again.

Heard of the Kinsey scale. A lot of us are somewhere in-between on a scale between gay on wide side and heterosexual on the other.
Kissed both. Some aspects of men kissing put me off. Stubble or beard and all the crap that is inside. I can't stand the hair getting in the way.
A woman skin is soft and smell gorgeous. As far as other areas I really get put off by the men smells again.
I find men a bit rougher and it can be good at times. But women have expert knowledge on what women want so can keep me much more satisfied!

It sounds like you fall for the person at least as much as....or more than the gender.

Yes, recently, I've always believed in sexuality being fluid and wasn't opposed to the idea of being intimate with a woman but it always felt more like a general curiosity than a specific sexual attraction if that makes sense. So sexually I wasn't that shocked when it happened, for me it doesn't feel that different being with a woman I'm very attracted to and being with a man I'm very attracted to. Emotionally it really threw me in a way I didn't expect. I felt emotionally comfortable with this girl in a way I've never felt with a guy. So that was really confusing, lots of time spent afterwards wondering if it was that I had more of a romantic attraction to women, or if it was just this particular woman or if it was just new and exciting and I had rose tinted glasses on Hmm

Definitely think you should go for it though Grin. Plan time! What's the atmosphere like between you both? Any flirting?

fast, yes, unfortunately I have. I have had a fair amount of criticism and even had one woman ask why I didn't figure out my sexuality before having my DD. Nice.

OP, I wasn't being arsey. It's just a bit of a sore spot for me and I wanted to clarify that's not what you were saying. Obviously you weren't. Anyway, good luck! Exciting times ahead I think Smile

FuckOff, yy to Holtzman! I saw Kate Mckinnon on Graham Norton and got a bit of a gay vibe, but didn't think she was my type, but then saw Ghostbusters Shock She's completely my sort in that! When she's all made up, with heels, hair extensions etc, nah, not so much. She's very funny though. Have you seen any of her sketches on SNL?

Yes but I am bi-sexual. I love now DH ( spot the change in letters there? ) but if I'm honest, I prefer women. Men make me retch a lot of the time. Too many seem like they would sell their own mum for a go in a vagina. Never felt that way about women. Actually DH is what would be described as effeminate by more burly blokes despite his size. Long ramble, sorry! I suppose it's more the person for me too. I've met more women who don't turn my stomach than men.

Prosecco those comments are never acceptable but unfortunately people are just ignorant. Ironically the same people that think it is an active 'choice' I think. People are very judgey when they know so little, when my DH left me for his secretary (oh yep) people asked me whether I was doing enough at home and in bed. My friend in RL thinks I now fancy a woman because I hate men allegedly. People say such stupid bullshit.

Punch them all I say Flowers

Oh but now they can say that your DH left you because you were a secret lesbian Grin

Seriously. People are twats. I know people say how mean MN is but sometimes I think I'd rather live here than the judgemental real world!

i think there is still a problem in society in general with women having sex for pleasure..........the underlying misogyny is probably intensified slightly when its two women because not only are they having sex without risking pregnancy they are not having to take contraception either.


Im bloody envious of the fact that you dont have to take contraception.

Once many years ago I was kissed by another woman, I was surprised, but let the kissing continue a bit and we both stopped. Both of us were drunk, and never mentioned it again afterwards.

I've kissed a few girls, while drunk and sober (now happily engaged to male DP, with a DD, just drunk me turns into a snogging machine). Some get quite nervous about it once they realise they're actually kissing a girl, others get into it and are amazing. I have been sexually attracted to women in the past and probably consider myself bisexual but in a committed straight relationship.
