One of the main challenges that women face when seeking other women for dating is navigating an often male-dominated online and offline dating scene. This can be especially daunting for those who identify as lesbian, bisexual, or queer (LBQ). In many cases, LBQ women have fewer opportunities to meet potential partners than heterosexual or cisgender people do. LBQ women may feel pressured to conform to traditional gender roles in order to fit into certain social circles.
