My name is Ann I am not a lesbian but yesterday my sister told me she was. I hope it is ok that i post here.... I had a feeling for a while that my sis was a lesbian I knew she would tell me when she was ready... So my question for you is where can she find support? She has only told a few family members and friends and I adivised her to look for a group of her peers to discuss what she is going through and so she can hear what others have been through. Any advice would be great.
thx

Hello Ann and welcome to the board.
Our board is a great place for support, information and general talk.
She can also contact the Gay Pride inc in her state. I am wondering if she has attended Gay Pride in her area yet or if it is still coming up. That is a great place to go for meeting people and picking up literature etc. for her area and all over the country. She can also look up Gay Pride inc. on the computer and find so much information.
Please feel free to visit our board anytime and also to refer your sis here.
I am sure many people on this board will have information to share as well.
Take care Ann, and it is so good to see that you are supporting you sister.

Ann,

Your sister is always welcomed to join in on this board anytime! Have her read the rules (yes we have rules) and tell her to start typing away. Somebody will always welcome her with open arms here. We are a group of open minded, hot, sweet, smart, loving ladies. We are a great big family and always willing to add another person! We all come from different backgrounds. We are ladies that have been through good and bad times. And have had each other to lean on for support. (Thanks everybody LOL!!!) We are willing to share and to listen to anything.

So, Yes, we open are arms wide in hope that she would join are happy family when she is ready.

LOL,
Angel
