One Size Does Not Fit All
by Margo Howard
Dear Margo: My 30th birthday is next week, and I'm already getting the inevitable "biological clock" questions from family and friends. I'm single, have a great job with awesome advancement potential, make good money, and have my retirement investments on the right track. I have nothing against marriage or kids, but no one I've dated has been serious enough for me to consider marriage. If I meet the right person someday, I'd be happy to commit to marriage; if not and I'm forever sin ...

Great thinking...let's encourage the Catholic girl to experiment with women so she can "discover" her sexuality. Apparently it's no different than working in the health-care industry for awhile to see whether or not nursing is really for you! But it's OK as long as they don't go all the way. Right. Maybe if this girl instead talked to her parish priest or some women in her church about this instead, the situation could have a happy ending. If her family are at all devout, I think they will be less than thrilled at the prospect of their daughter even dabbling in this sort of behavior, much less entering into a formal lesbian relationship with another woman. It tells me a lot that she's concerned about "preserving her virginity" - it suggests that she comes from a pretty conservative background or else she wouldn't have mentioned it. I also find it interesting that Margo even brings up the matter of the states that legally sanction homosexual relationships - as if that had anything at all to do with this girl finding herself and getting her head on straight. Bad advice. Bad, bad advice. I hope someone else gets to this girl and talks some sense into her before she catches an STD or at the least, causes herself serious psychological trauma.
