ABSTRACT
Relationships are truly a paradox. People spend half of their time wondering whether they can possibly live with this person and the other half of their time wondering whether they can possibly live without this person. A few years ago at a workshop, an intriguing relationship concept was described by Stephen Levine. Stephen Levine and his wife Ondrea have authored a number of books on death, dying, and healing, and they are two of the author's spiritual guides. If they don't end in divorce, they will someday end in death. Women are relational by nature: highly concerned, if not consumed, with those they love. It's therefore no surprise that relationship questions are a hot topic of conversation among all lesbians. Lesbians are in the closet in more ways than one. And lesbian sex has unique hardships: secrecy, sexism, oppression.
