Late-blooming lesbians: women can switch sexualities as they mature - TelegraphOne study even indicates that as many as two-thirds of women who feel lesbian attractions may have changed their sexual orientation over time.
The findings appear to pose a challenge to the scientific consensus that a person's sexuality is determined more by their genes than environment.
Christan Moran, a researcher at Southern Connecticut State University in the US, said that many women who develop lesbian feelings in later life refuse to “come out” for fear of society’s reaction.
Women in long-term heterosexual relationships, especially those with children, face even greater problems reconciling themselves to their new identities, she said.
So Gay ain't genetic it would seem.
