Expert: More women are in relationships with other women
Some leave husbands or boyfriends for other women
Researchers study whether women's sexuality is less fixed than men's
Professor: Sexual fluidity is not something women can control Lately, a new kind of sisterly love seems to be in the air. In the past few years, Sex and the City's Cynthia Nixon left a boyfriend after a decade and a half and started dating a woman (and talked openly about it).
Certainly nothing is new about women having sex with women, but we've arrived at a moment in the popular culture when it all suddenly seems almost fashionable -- or at least, acceptable.
Statistics on how many women have traded boyfriends and husbands for girlfriends are hard to come by. Although the U.S. Census Bureau keeps track of married, divorced, single, and even same-sex partners living together, it doesn't look for the stories behind those numbers.
But experts like Binnie Klein, a Connecticut-based psychotherapist and lecturer in Yale's department of psychiatry, agree that alternative relationships are on the rise.

I can see for companionship but why must everything have to be about sex? This country is sick.
Haha well our culture is decadent...........
They have Cynthia Nixon.
CNN BS. What is new about man haters? Nothing, unfortunately.
She wanted to go lesbian, just not all the way lesbian.

You lost me on word #1.
There are no experts when it comes to women’s minds.
Agreed. Why is everything sexualized in some way. So now we are supposed to be liberal and open and tolerant of women leaving oppressive relationships with men and finding their new found freedom with loving women. Sheesh.........
I guess so..

Top Gun’s Kelly McGillis ‘Done with the Man Thing’
Kelly McGillis, best known as Tom Cruise’s girlfriend in 1986’s Top Gun, has revealed to the Internet show Girl Rock! that she is single but no longer searching for a male companion.
Asked if she’s looking to date a man or woman, the actress, 51, replied, “Definitely a woman.”

That’s why. It’s the thing to do. Like saying “I have black friends!!!” in the 70s.
There will be a bunch of Hasbians in about 10 years when the fashion statement wears off.
Sideways move.
It’s because American men have become so feminized by the liberal culture that women have no need for them. John Wayne is out, Leonardo DiCaprio is in.
Why? Because of their denial of God, they’ve been given over to their perversion/sin.
Breakdown of the Traditional Family....
BTW it is interesting how the media groupies all jump on the concept of "gender fluidity." People choosing which set of genitals to tickle. This has got to be troubling to the hardcore homosexual lobby, who have been shrieking and cawing for years that being queer "is not a choice."
EXACTLY.....girly men don’t appeal to most women anyway....so, they go for a manly woman....
Funny, yet true ping.
Hey, with the advancements of science they do not need sex between a male and female to reproduce. with all the girly men on the left, who blames them if they just skip over them?
/sarcasm
One almost always looks like a man. Short man haircut, masculine dress, always in pants, and vests, and big shoes or boots. Wallets, they like wallets.
