I have an aunt who thinks like the OP does and she's a devout Jehovah's Witness, are you?

I finally got to the bottom of why she would refuse a lesbian friend and she was concerned other people would think SHE was gay too . I would not want people thinking I was a lesbian either, because I'm not & it's incorrect information. But when people have this issue it seems to be about the social STIGMA of someone thinking they're a lesbian.

I do not beleive your niece has solely lesbian friends, especially if she has a group of friends. There's probably ones you just don't know of that are straight.

Who cares what you think it best. She's an adult and can do whatever she likes. You can either be a nice, supportive uncle or a critical, judgmental one.

No. And none of my relatives, including my parents, know ALL of my friends. I don't know ANYONE that only has friends of the same sexual orientation.

Uh, yeah, you are old, that's about all we know for sure here.

Does it matter? She is either gay or she isn't. Nothing you do, say, or think will change that fact. As other posters have already stated, just accept her as she is.

So when you were young, you hung around lesbians, too?

I don't understand the the concern? I have friends that are lesbians. But I hang with both sexes.
