    Is it natural for women to be attracted to other women? no homo. tendencies, just attraction.

    Sometimes we are naturally attracted to the same sex. Are we drawn by someone's appearance or personality when we choose to interact with them. Women especially have no problem saying that another woman is beautiful, what does that mean exactly.  I don't really hear of men doing this behavior but I know it's possible.  Maybe we as humans are just naturally do this.

    Yes, you're right. It's natural for humans to be attracted to other humans, but not necessarily in a sexual way.

    Where women are concerned, I think that being attracted to other women is evolutionary. Women would have had to stick together in order to take care of children, cook, make clothing, etc, while the men hunted.

    It might be both a combination of appearance and personality as certain indicators in each would have meant that that particular woman had a specific set of traits necessary for survival. For example, height, strength, intelligence and more would have been crucial for survival.

    These days, some of these tendencies to look for individuals with certain traits obviously don't mean that we're looking for others to help us survive, but I think it's more about surrounding ourselves with people that can support us or people who simply make us happy.

    Hope this helps!

    i think the right term would be "admire or adore" ..for me it is quite but natural that we admire someone on the same gender..like best example to it..the way we admire and love female celebrities..not only us women admire each other,but men as well..cos we happen to find extra ordinary traits or talent in them that we don't possess..or even how cool their personality as well..like the wy they dress,the way they talk, their style is so awesome..it's not like omg im attracted to her and i want to be with her lol..but it's up to you what kind of attraction or admiration do you have for your fellow women!!! how intense is your attraction to your fellow women?..it's you who can only categorized and distinguish it!!! smile

    If you're attracted to the same sex for any reason, then these are indeed homosexual feelings. I'm not judging whether it's natural or not,because I'm not into that but I will say some women need to just admit that they are either lesbians or bisexuals. Some women say things like "I think women are beautiful" or as you wrote ,"sometimes we are naturally attracted to the same sex. " Noooooo, we're not all "sometimes NATURALLY attracted to the same sex". These are just homosexual thoughts on the part of women. You never hear a truly heterosexual man say things like."well sometimes a man can be attracted to another guy. " LOL. I can admire a guy with a good physique which would be somewhat clinical and detach manner. Then I would have the inspiration to hit the gym or do some sit ups but never would I have a desire to have sex with him or get aroused. That thought would be kind of repulsive like the thought of eating my own feces. However,you do hear supposedly heterosexual woman say, they sometimes get aroused by simply looking at another women. Well that my be natural but only natural to a homosexual woman, not a purely heterosexual woman. Mind you,I'm not talking about a woman getting turned on by a buff female body builder who basically looks like a guy.

    It does appear that a lot of women have bisexual tendencies. Again, you would never hear a guy say something like," he had sex with another man because his girlfriend of wife wasn't satisfying him." LOL. However women have been known to make such silly claims to justify having sex with another woman.
