“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

A lesbian or homosexual is on very shifting psychological ground, because the same interests and abilities that they feel most personally theirs are precisely those that mark them as sexual eccentrics.

Because of your exaggerated focus, you therefore become relatively blind to other aspects of “sexuality.” First of all, sexuality per se does not necessarily lead to intercourse. It can lead to acts that do not produce children. What you think of as lesbian or homosexual activity is quite natural sexual expression, biologically and psychologically. In more “ideal” environments such activity would flourish to some extent, particularly before and after prime reproductive years.

Lesbianism and homosexuality, as they are currently experienced, also represent exaggerated versions of natural inclinations, even as your experienced version of heterosexuality is exaggerated.

[...] Each person will generally find it easier to operate as male or female, lesbian or homosexual, but each person is primarily bisexual. Bisexuality implies parenthood as much as it implies lesbian or homosexual relationships. [...]

Many quite fine nonsexual relationships are denied, because of the connotations placed upon lesbianism or homosexuality. [...]

[...] In times of overpopulation, so-called homosexual and lesbian tendencies come to the surface — but also there is the tendency to express love in other than physical ways, and the emergence of large social issues and challenges into which men and women can throw their energies. [...]

I am not saying that lesbianism and homosexuality are merely stages leading to heterosexuality. I am saying that lesbianism, homosexuality, and heterosexuality are valid expressions of man’s bisexual nature.

[...] Tendencies toward lesbianism or homosexuality in children are quite natural. [...]

(Both of us were very glad to have Seth deliver this material on sex, as we’ve received many letters from men and women who were confused about their sexual identities, and often overwhelmed by feelings of guilt because of an orientation toward lesbianism or homosexuality.)

[...] This applies to lesbian and homosexual relationships as well as to heterosexual ones. [...]

[...] Lesbian and homosexual relationships then are at best tenuous, overwrought with confused emotions, very seldom able to maintain a stability that allows for individual growth. [...]

[...] Some people believe that homosexuals and lesbians are “evil,” that somehow they lack the true qualities of humanness [and therefore need not be treated with normal respect]. [...]

Homosexual or lesbian relationships, as you term them, existed quite freely, and simultaneously. [...]

[...] It goes without saying that lesbian and homosexual relationships flourished in such surroundings. [...]

[...] There will be portions, therefore, dealing with sexuality, lesbianism and homosexuality, as well as the more recognized categories.

[...] The questions of lesbianism and homosexuality are also considered, along with their private and social effects.

[...] In doing some of these exercises, you might come across images of masturbation, homosexual or lesbian encounters, or simply old sexual fantasies, and immediately backtrack because your beliefs may tell you that these are evil.

[...] Psyche, as Jane and I call it, contains some excellent new material, such as Seth’s first discussions of sex — including lesbianism, homosexuality, and bisexuality — as well as other related subjects that we know, from our correspondence, to be of intense general concern. [...]
