You are judging all lesbians by one group you encountered as a child. Apart from the fact that I don't know how you could know any convent was the short of "hotbed" you describe (sounds more like a fantasy to me), it's more likely the abusive nuns were suffering from enforced celibacy within an oppressive hierarchical organisation. Not excusing them, but their behavior wasn't necessarily linked to their sexuality.
I'm sorry you and other kids experienced that, and also sorry that its left you with a legacy of misjudging all lesbians by your experiences.
I'm not lesbian now but I was for many years and the attitude of some that they're better than het women and all men gave me the shits. I've seen dykes do the same shit things to each other and each other's kids as men do - family violence, rape, abandoning kids when a relationship breaks down and I've also known some wonderful loving ethicial lesbians. Just like other humans, eh? No better, no worse
Girlfriend refuses to have sex and will not explain why...

I am saying many lesbians are good people, and I'm saying that I hope you are one of them. Notice that I am not judging all lesbians by my experience.

Oh thanks, I'm so sorry I misunderstood you.
