She is a lesbian because she was born that way. She likes other girls the same way you like whoever you like. Just accept and love her no matter what.

Perhaps she has been influenced from the media/her friends/other sources. It could be that she lacks a male role model/any male person in her life which has lead her to automatically be attracted to girls.

There's no reason why she is a lesbian, people can't control their sexual orientations and attractions. If you asked someone why they are heterosexual they probably wouldn't know the answer. "I just am" is the usual response. That's probably how your child feels, all sexualities are natural and uncontrollable.

Because she was born that way? She is attracted to other girls. It must feel scary to think your daughter is a lesbian?

Why are you straight? The answer is that you were born that way. Your daughter is a lesbian for the same reason.

I think asking the question "why is my daughter a lesbian" could be quite offensive especially to teenagers and young adults. I am a lesbian and in my opinion do not see anything wrong with being able to express myself or let others know what my sexual orientation is at the present time.
In my opinion when I told my foster parents I was a lesbian they weren't supportive until after they started reading some of the literature I left all around the house. In my honest opinion I did not choose to become a lesbian instead it was something that came upon me after a serious of events, which were traumatic. Please do not be critical or hurtful because your daughter just informed you that she is a lesbian. In my opinion there are far more worse things a child could tell you.

You're daughter is lesbian because she like females, you're daughter may also like horses or the color pink. You're daughter doesn't just decide to be a lesbian. She was born one.

Why do you breathe air? Why do you drink water? Why do you eat food? Why do you ask? Why does it matter? Because she is and she does, that's all you need.

There isn't a "why". Being lesbian isn't a choice. She's born like that, and as a parent that might be difficult to understand at the begining, but all you have to do is support her because she need love and compassion, especially from her parents.

Why are you straight?
It's a preference.
Like liking vanilla or chocolate. There's no reason, you just simply perfer one flavour over the other.
Just accept and love her.

Your daughter is likely a lesbian because she is attracted to women and would like to have a romantic partnership with one someday when she's ready for one. It has nothing to do with how she was raised or anything else, she just feels that way. It's just as valid and natural as your sexual preference, it's just a little more controversial.

Your daughter might not feel comfortable with a man . He might make her feel weird she might not like male and woman intercourse. Around a woman she might feel safer and really loved. Women are emotional creatures so she might want someone who understands her.

People can't choose their sexuality, they are born this way. So there is no reason why your daughter is a lesbian, jus like there's no reason why your daughter is a girl. It might be difficult for you to understand and get to terms with this but I hope for you and your daugther that you can figure it out and that everything turns out alright for both of you! :)

Your daughter is a lesbian because that's who she is. There's no way around it. She was born that way and will always be attracted to other females.

You cannot choose your sexual orientation. Your daughter was born that way. Many people often don't realize their sexual orientation until they're older because of how our society sees sexuality. Until I came to college I believed I was straight. I eventually realized I'm equally attracted to all genders and there's nothing wrong with that. I know it may be hard to accept that your daughter likes other girls, but that is who she is and what she needs most is to feel accepted and supported by those who love her. Even though she likes/loves other girls, she is still your daughter. Connect to her and talk to her. Communication is key in every relationship.

Your daughter is a lesbian because she was born that way. You didn't "raise her wrong" nor did she "choose" to be a lesbian. That's just how she is. Nothing happened to make her this way, it's just who she is.

Some people are just born that way, just as she was born a brunette or a blonde or a ginger. There is nothing you can do about it, but embrace it and support her. Show her that you love her no matter what. After all, family comes first: everything else comes second.

Your daughter is a lesbian for the same reason some people are straight, or bisexual, or transgender. That is the way she is naturally, and there is nothing at all wrong with that. In the end, as long as your daughter is happy, that is all that should matter.
