There is no shame in being lesbian or bisexual. Sexuality with a woman, in your mind or in the bed next to you, may open up the aura of the forbidden for you, or even some part of you that you want to access but would not allow yourself to before. I want you to consider this: If this is a huge turn-on for you, it’s time to embrace and accept it. Don’t run away from something that is giving you such pleasure. Release any guilt or shame about it, and celebrate it to the max.

All the best, Dr. Patti
