Don't hate yourself. The only way to put out the anguish is to accept the way you are. Its alright, there are plenty of others like you out there so you are not totally alone! You don't have to hurt yourself to feel better, just accept who you are :)
I think everyone hates at least one thing about themselves, so that's normal. My advice is to just be yourself. So you're a lesbian. It's no big deal, since there are plenty of lesbians out there. If people won't accept that, it's simply due to ignorance.
There's nothing wrong with lesbians. Chill out, many guys think its hot as hell. Its becoming more and more socially acceptable.
You are what you are, try and except it before it starts effecting you in other ways. You are only 16 so your ideas will change as you age.
wow i am sorry you feel that way about yourself. But there really is nothing wrong with being gay. I have a cousin hu is a lesbian... and i was the first person she told. for the first 2 years or so... she really struggled to accept herself but eventually with support from the rest of her family she is really happy. have you told your friends and family yet? because i dont believe you can accept hu you are until you have come out of the closet. dont worry about everything tho. it is understandable and normal that you are feeling this way. Just give it time and i am sure you will start accepting it eventually! good luck!
Yeah, there nothing wrong with being a lesbian, your breath may stink of fish but you can always try gum.
dont hate ur self just cause ur a lesbian its not bad u were just born that way u shouldent hurt urself besides i think lesbians r hot most guys do to
its ok boxer, you're ok
Do not hate yourself. There is nothing wrong with being gay. Do not hurt youself over it. You should talk to a counselor and get your feelings out there.
The best thing you can do is stay away from other lesbians. They don't need all the drama that inevitably results from dealing with somebody who hates herself. A healthy sense of self-esteem comes from doing estimable things. Do dykes a favor--stick around straight people. Then you'll have something to be proud of.
you're not attracted to guys AT ALL?

maybe you should just find a guy and do some sexual things with him, see if that turns you on. if not, then you should just accept yourself, no point in being unhappy u feel me?
ok.


you cant change yourself. its impossible. you are who you are. just be yourself. come to terms with the fact! your not alone!
attention seeker, fake. If by chance this is real, go ahead and end it all...












... die your hair black.
if your gay i wouldnt worry about prayin to god cz ur goin to hell anyways
course you are not going to hell for be a lesbian girl.-
so , o nly accept it, dont try to change , because then you will suffer,perhaps some day you will find the right person to whom make happyt and that makes you happy. meantime , just accept it.-
you are young, so you have a lot of time for have severals experiences,, just wait , and when you feel that you are ready you will take the right decision for join you future with some body else.-
give time to the time. and joy of life without the abuse.-and without unusefull worries.-
be yourself.-
you was not born gay...dont give me that shit...you like pussy, fucking admit and get on with your life...if you wanna fuck a dick then do it...hell if you do it enough you might grow to like it...get over yourself...oh and if an absent father isnt the issue then just forget about the bastard or bitch that touched you when you was younger...
god doesn't exist. That's why you're still a lesbian.
All girls admire and like other girls. So do I. I should have been queer but I am a soft man who worships the female anatomy. It is far more refined., Sorry, that probably doesn't help at all.
Hey don't you ever say that!!!!!

If I could have one wish it would be to be a lesbian!

Live life for what you want and not for this normal, not normal style we have!
oh em gee qirl, be proud of who you are . & iqnore imamekemyownname , qod does exist . but in case you wanna fall in love with boys, just look at them , talk more often with them idk .

Learn to accept yourself the way you are believ it or if god exists he okay with it because he created you right. then implying there something wrong with you is implying there something wrong with god and there isn't god is just god he's not judgemental only men who wrote and interpreted his word are the judgemental ones. Find a city that has a gay neighborhood and find gays to hang with who can relate to your issues. But since your young for now just try to realize that you are perfectly fine. It is our society full of homophobes that is the problem. And thats not you. you seem smart and intelligent give it time and you will find your nitch. Just so you know alot of people hate themselves thats why they fear your sexuality. I have Lesbian friends that have alot of fear especially with men trying to help them(lifting boxes) giving advice, they tend to have this attitude I can do it myself. Most people can't do it themselves even the biggest and strongest need to ask for help.
And you are so I say get rid of the self hatred I'm straight and I've hated myself for a long time. But it means you are not happy with something about yourself. IT COULD be this but it sound like your more fearful of what your friends family and strangers think of you.
F$#$CK them Be happy with who you are. Part of problem is the Sexrights movement is so bent on trying to get everyone to agree that being gay is okay and be open with it. But people are not okay with it and it is their problem not yours. You are one of "gods" creations and a beautiful miracle so be thankful and happy. because if you get some books on self esteem and facing fear you'll realize you have to love yourself because no one can do that for you except you. Hold your standards high and expect more from yourself. Find books by susan jeffers, find websites for gays and ask how they deal with it . Long Beach, SanFrancisco, and i'm sure New York have large gay communities that have websites. And maybe the fear is your not old enough or secure enough to come out to family and strangers. Jeffers quotes a ancient sage "when the student is ready the teacher will appear" This was your first lesson now find other teachers in books and in the world learn to love yourself and life. If you start now as you get older it will get easier to comfortable and realize it's your problem it is others problem with accepting your life style.


Please don't hurt yourself, if not for me and your friends, then do it for you and god!
Live with Peace, Strength and Honor and the rest will fall into place.

Oh yeah I'm a straight man. I hope you can see past that because even more than that I'm a person with the same issues I'm learning to love myself at 36 because no one taught this stuff when i was your age!
Another thing I thought about is my quote GOD GAVE US FREE WILL, THE CHURCH IS TRYING TO TAKE IT AWAY!
Other religious paths, sexuality, and what is acceptable is BS( Bull Sh$#@T) and don't do this to yourself stop thinking this way. What I've been reading lately is WHAT EVER YOU THINK WILL BE REAL TO YOU!
So change your thinking. Women are awesome and if you like them go for it. not to be funny but i wish iwas a lesbian I would not have all the f@#cked up social issues I'm sorting out now at 36 it sucks but i'm going to be okay because I'm learning to turn off the negative beliefs about myself and you can too. A book that is helping is "feeling good" by DR. david burns and it takes work but you can feel better about yourself and not care what everyone else thinks.THE ONLY PERSON HOLDING YOU BACK IS YOURSELF!!!! STOP IT NOW AND LOVE THE GIFT GOD GAVE YOU THE POSSIBILITY TO LOVE MAN OR WOMAN IT DOES NOT MATTER WE ARE ALL PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!
i think th only reason you hate yourself is probably bwecause tyour christian. if so, whats wrong with you is you let someone else make your decisions. its finethat your gay, nobody is going to hell for fucks sake.
love thyself, you'll be happy if you just live as you are.
