      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hey guys. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Just after some advice. I am 39 years old, I have always identified as a lesbian. I was never really interested in guys, and I have always had sex / relationships with women. I still love women but I have been a little curious of late. I want to sleep with a guy. I am not sure how to go about doing this as it has never been some thing I have wanted to do. I just want to know what it is like. Do I tell the guy that it is my first time? I don't exactly want to get into a relationship or whatever. My two closest friends are very supportive but no one else knows. It's pretty confusing but I really want to do it. &lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi ES, welcome&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;We have a LBGTI section. Might be better having your question there. &lt;I&gt;[Moderator note: we have moved this thread to the Sexuality and gender identity section]&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Its a perfectly good question. Although I think I'd battle with myself trying to answer it as I'm straight. Personally if I was you I'd go through a computer dating site only because your desires are directional and it would be better seeking someone after a similar relationship albeit short term.&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;I wish you luck and happiness&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Tony WK&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi emotionsickness,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you are curious and want to experiment, to answer your question, i think it would be a good idea to tell the guy it's your first time with a man and that you've only been with women up to this time.   Just to be up front.  &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;That's just my opinion. &lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi and welcome to our caring community ES;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;It's great you've plucked up the courage to ask for advice and tell a little of your story to us here on BB. Your query is unique and one I'd like to explore with you if that's ok.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The first thing that puzzled me was; what prompted this issue to come to the surface? If you've never been attracted to the opposite sex, why now? Does it have anything to do with having children?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Being inquisitive isn't a crime; having a fantasy and then acting it out isn't a new idea. I get it. If you speak to anyone who has, you might find it isn't always as exciting as it's cracked up to be. There's a lot of disappointed people out there including me.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;But...you don't know until you try yeah? &lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;Acting on your fantasy might best be done with a friend; someone you know, 'trust' and inclusive of your desire to experience something new.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;I was approached by a good friend in my 20's to explore a technique he'd wanted to ask his ex's to do but couldn't. I identify as Bi so the prospect was considered. We talked extensively about it and set about preparing. A candle lit dinner at home, wine, laughter and then slowly we became intimate.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;For both of us it was like being in a science lab! lol Talk about a let down! Afterwards we decided to stay friends and put it in the past...friends can do that if they're open.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I want you to be safe first and foremost. Prepare a safe environment and have an exit plan which includes your partner so there's no conflict or unexpected 'consent' issues. This is really important hun.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Considering your partners feelings is important too. They need to be respected just as you do ok.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Please keep in touch as I'd be glad to engage.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;My best..&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Sez&lt;/P&gt;</description>
