They are more demonstrative in showing their (strictly platonic) affection in a physical sense, than I am. When it comes to friendly affection - anybody can initiate and I donot differentiate on the basis of sexuality here.
As regards non-platonic physical contact - again I donot differenciate! I have never made the first move (physically) on any girl - I feel its the lady&#039;s prerogative, just like I felt it was MY prerogative to decide what / when / how much - with men. So the key is to let the 1st, 2nd &amp; 3rd (physical) move be hers! This has nothing to do sexuality / orientation. If she wants to, she will, on her terms. Or let it go.
p.s. I&#039;m Queer! And I&#039;m not interested in you and won&#039;t touch you - unless you touch me first and make it clear AND I really like you (which is super rare, if I might add!)
So girls - please relax - most queer girls like me, bark but donot bite! and don&#039;t complain about the barks - you enjoy it!!</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>yes &#8211; ofcourse. friendship has nothing to do with sexuality. most of my closest dearest friends identify as straight.

Straight girls- it has been my experience, test their lesbian friends way too often and moreso than their straight girlfriends and flirt way too much, and get confused,and they think their lesbian friends want to become sexually involved with them to maintain the friendship. I too am, a huggy, giving and loving friend. I do not expect, nor need or want sex from all my friends, especially, straight girlfriends, to maintain a solid loving relationship that is nonromantic.  So, straight ladies, why can we not be the best and closest of friends without you freaking out when your lesbian friend offers platonic affection?</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I think if you are real friends, you should be able to share your thoughts feelings, emotions,mutual respect, honesty and non sexual intimacy: otherwise, are you friends or acquaintances?

* YES - Anyone can be friends  dont mean your in a sexual relationship with them your just there friend.
* whether her girlfriend ever resents - No she just watching like any other its normal.
* I wish I could speak up and tell her how happy I am that she has found someone special.
You could do this 1 on 1 so you dont have to walk around on eggshells and she could or he could tell you maybe how they both feel.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This post has to much words&#8230;.</p><p>* YES &#8211; Anyone can be friends  dont mean your in a sexual relationship with them your just there friend.</p><p>* whether her girlfriend ever resents &#8211; No she just watching like any other its normal.</p><p>* I wish I could speak up and tell her how happy I am that she has found someone special.</p><p>You could do this 1 on 1 so you dont have to walk around on eggshells and she could or he could tell you maybe how they both feel.</p> ]]></content:encoded> </item> <item><title>By: DK</title><link>http://gaysifamily.com/2008/11/24/can-a-straight-woman-and-a-lesbian-woman-be-friends/#comment-134</link> <dc:creator>DK</dc:creator> <pubDate>Sat, 24 Jan 2009 18:31:52 +0000</pubDate> <guid

But when I&#039;m around women who aren&#039;t friends yet, but acquaintances, I do restrain the affectionate side of my personality just in case I make them uncomfortable.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yes absolutely.
