Question
In the bible, it states sexual lust as sin. But what is considered lesbian sexual lust, since lesbians don't have sex? As a Christian lesbian, I would like to know what kind of thoughts to avoid.

Answer
Gabriela-

Lesbians don't have intercourse, but they do have sex - oral sex, mutual masturbation, rubbing genitals together - that is considered sex.  Any thoughts about those activities would be considered lesbian lust.  Lesbian lust would be no different that heterosexual lust - fantasizing about sexual activities with someone not your spouse.

I hope this helps.  Please let me know if you have any further questions and take the time to rate my answer.

blessings,
