Was Lureen a lesbian or bi, maybe?

She has to hide her lesbianism, she found that or not in college?? I think that she may very well enjoyed to touch slightly secretively - female for female issues - in college, and maybe had sex with another female(s) there. She did not approfondir French word, I guess to deepen more and more in English) that there in college or did she? She is in pain; quickness of sex shows that!! Does she feel guilty for being a lesbian - likely so unfortunately, since society dictates that, even by execution (death) to-day in certain countries; rediculing in our democratic countries still to certain degrees (hopefully that is changing) since our cries are being seen and the murdering of innocent persons like gay men for being gay men is reveal too as senseless and not human acts as humanity!!

In Lureen's case, becoming bisexual by choice and by force which society imposes - saves her life (temporarily is another thread later on). WE can not change history that much or at all, but we can change the present and the future; Lureen changes her present - for now we know (I know) that as she captures Jack and she will change also Jack's future (that is another thread saving him again).UNQUOTE:

Artiste, Laureen doesn,t have to hide her lesbianism, because she isn,t a lesbian and she isn,t bisexual either. I really don,t understand, and can,t work out how on earth you have convinced yoursefl that she was either of these.  :-\

Sandy:
I think that if Lureen wanted a female lover, she would have taken one as easily as put sugar in her tea.  She had a husband, a son and a job and if there was anything else she wanted, she would have made damn sure she got it.  I see nothing in her to indicate that she was attracted to females, but I base my opinion on the fact that, had she been so, she would not have let it lie. 

Artiste:
Thanks souxi, and thanks BBM-Cat!!

Why, this question if this thread, is this like taboo?? I consider it valid
not only as a question; also as a possiblity as well as a probability!!

Hard for me to prove to you and to all, yes!! I wish I had your talents to do so!!

Like quoting BBM-Cat:
--- Quote ---Who knows, perhaps as Ennis suggested, Jack did bring up the idea to Lureen about she and Alma adopting the girls and all of them living together as two happy gay couples herding sheep.
Preposterous.

--- End quote ---

....

To you two and to all: In return why you think that as preposterous??
I think that was possible. After all, she did live with Jack for how many years??

And, therefore, may I add, do not husband and wife talk about their relationship??
We are in the BM movie somewhat lead to think that Jack and Lureen do not talk... anymore, yes but what was before that... they did talk about their relationship?? I think sosurely since Jack does he not wish it still that kind of communications between him and his wife?? I say yes!!

Of course, Jack wants still communications as a relationship with Ennis, I agree!!  Note his words and his thought: plus Jack still wants too his relationship with Lureen, his wife. Does he tells Ennis that he wants to divorce Lureen?  But I say Lureen now either is more lesbian, than bi; or more bisexual now... and so even if she still lets Jack be with her, she looks at another woman!!

I praise her that she does not then look at other men!! That is a clue too, saying that she is lesbian?

Do I have something there??

Awaiting your thoughts or search,

hugs!!

Artiste:
Thanks Sandy. Your comment was arriving as I posted mine.

I am very happy with your comment. May I quote you:

Sandy, may I say that by your comment, in a way or more says, that Lureen is a lesbian... indeed!!- I will try to explain, OK! To me, Lureen came to realize that she did want a female lover, and she took one or about to do so near the end of the BM movie. She is impressed by a lady at that dance, yes?? Is it a crush on her??

Lureen at that dance, says a lot with little words.... which mean much!
And she adds why men don't like to dance, women do... or something like that which indicates to me her desire to come into a lesbian relationship with that lady or another in the future. I see nothing wrong in thinking that about her then... and I accept her for that talk!!

There and then at that dance:
She is frustrated not only with her husband (being a man) but with men!! She yearns for female companionship, yes??

I am not a lady being a man. But it seems to me in ladies' conversations in public, a lady does talk about female issues discreetly to other ladies, right?? Here at that dance Lureen is frustrated with men, wants really to dance with the female there she chums with... and likes females in more than one way!! I praise her. Is she not a product of female sexual revolution?

But trying to free herself as lesbian, will she ever do it? Impossible maybe in her situation, married to a man, having a child, being in a society we know and we were shown not only disagrees with lesbiamisn then (and to a less extent now hopelfully as seen on Oprah last week), her father would never or does accept her as a lesbian or bisexual??

If he (her father) knows, he can only accept her as bisexual if she does it utmostly discreetly - that we know since he allowed her to court in quick sex and quick marriage as to capture a man; she is the one who wants and forces marriage on to Jack!! ?? Right??

It is not Jack that asks her for her hand in marriage, right??

Awaiting your thoughts and reseach from you and from all,

hugs!!

Artiste just because Laureen might have been impressed with Lawshawn at the dance, doesn,t mean she fancied the pants off of her. She could simply have been admiring her dress or her hair. Women do do that you know, even me. It doesn,t make us raving lesibians!!   ::)
I,m not taking any further part in this discussion because it,s just ridiculous. You havn,t yet explained to me, or anyone else, in plain simple English, how you have arrived at this crazy theory of yours.  I just don,t get it, and I certainly don,t beleive it for one moment, and I don,t think anyone else does either.
