Is a girl kissing another straight girl cheating?

It's a phallocentric world we live in - it don't count if there isn't a cock involved!
Think about it this way: in the eyes of society can a woman really lose their virginity to another woman?

Maybe not, but she can lose her virginity if her hymen breaks while she's using a tampon or engaging in horseback riding or some other athletic activity. Though, oddly enough, she can engage in anal sex and still be a virgin. Go figure.

Hey, I'm just parroting what I've seen on the boards!

I know it's not the same as the above story, but what if your SO did this, but she decided not to tell you and you found out from someone else several months later?

If my girlfriend were to have a brief encounter like the initial story and I were to learn about it later on (let's say 6 months) from someone else, then I'd confront her and ask why she didn't tell me. It could be a trust issue, so yeah, I'd talk about it with her, but as far as the incident itself is concerned, I'd see it as a drunk, lesbian encounter. I know it may sound rude and uneducated or even a lack of respect, but it's not the same with a woman as it is with a man. I think it may have to do with territory, ego and the domineering male. You can't compete with other women, but you can with other men.

So to answer your question, yes, I'd have a problem with the fact that she never told me, but not with what happened... just because there's obviously a trust issue somewhere...

Define 'is'.


;D


Cheating is such a grey area, it really depends on the individuals and their relationship.

...she can lose her virginity if her hymen breaks while she's ... engaging in horseback riding

Does it matter if it's a make or female horse?

Mac98 said what my first thought was when I read this. If it were a man no question it was cheating, but with another women. That caught me off guard.

What difference does it make what the gender is?

If it's something that happens on an emotional level, and more than a friendly kiss, and you don't tell your s/o because you feel bad, then it's cheating. Full stop.

Kissing aside, most men would get a little upset if they found out you went to a bachelor party, got dressed up, rented a limo and went out to a bunch of bars. Along the way, you picked up a few guys, who later bought us tons of drinks.

That's true, BUT, if we stick to the question, I don't think kissing another female would be as big an issue... but you're right.
