Lesbian Health Matters

What makes lesbian health different from the health concerns of women in general? Are these differences inherent in lesbians, or are they result of being lesbian in a generally homophobic society? What are the reproductive options for lesbians? How do end of life issues differ for lesbians? Explore these important topics with the Co-Director of the Center for Lesbian Health Research, Patricia Robertson MD, Professor in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences at UCSF.

A Real Lesbian does not have SEX with MEN

This topic is not at all sensitive with the lesbian setting. Lesbians get insulted with a particular discussion on them. No need to separate women and lesbian as they are all female.

@503 Yeah I agree, but I think it's a generational thing. Lesbians now-a-days dont sleep with men as much as they did in the 70's

my question is why are lesbians put in a categories which leads them to needing seperate healthcare? A womens body does not change because she is a lesbian I think it is pure ignorance.

LESBIANS LESBIANS LESBIANS!! I am a lesbian but hearing that word repeatedly is kind of insulting! The more and more you say it, the more you label us away from society, darn. Please change the word... if a straight man/woman made up the word, please the homosexual should be the one making it up into a softer, less harsh way... please.
