Pressure to go out with boys
1968
“I was living in a hostel (in 1968) and I felt peer pressure from the other women who were going out with boys. I was 18 and not sure about my sexuality. I began to sleep with chaps but needed a drink to do it and never enjoyed the experience. I began to have kisses and cuddles with women, but I was very confused and drinking heavily”.
