Please, MommaJ, do NOT send them to women’s colleges!
I remember a conversation I had many years ago at the annual retreat of CT NARAL, of which I was on the board. A (very nice) lesbian rep from the national organization in DC was telling us about how they liked to take visiting state board members to lesbian bars, and how some of them felt uneasy “in their pearl necklaces.” I said, well why would a straight woman particularly want to go to a lesbian bar? She said, well they were nice spaces, where you didn’t have to worry about men hitting on you. I and another straight person said, yeah, but straight women often go to bars deliberately to socialize with friends but also possibly meet guys. Maybe they wouldn’t feel comfortable with a woman hitting on them?!?
This idea that women don’t want to talk to guys and sex is something men do to them rather than something they enjoy and even initiate really annoys me. If I guy approaches you civilly, either talk to him or civilly indicate your lack of interest. If a guy is a jerk, sure, that’s annoying. But the vast majority are not. Frankly, in my time of studying in coeducational spaces, I did not see female students besieged by a constant stream of men who would not leave them alone. Where does this happen?
