Hey y'all, I've been feeling all kinds of mixed up emotions lately, and I just need to let it out somewhere. So bear with me while I lay it down. About a month ago, my husband died in a car accident.

As a woman, I've always been curious about what drives attraction between women sexually. While I'm certainly not an expert, it's something that has lingered in my mind for some time.
