But I cant say for sure because ive never been in an intimate relationship with a woman. So maybe I am choosing safety, but how do I know its safer if ive never had sex with both male or female?

Sounds like you were asking an opinion from your T about being a lesbian since you said you just think there is a possibility & didn't come out & say that you KNEW you are...obviously she is going to get you to explore your thoughts & reasoning. She would not be doing her job as a T if she didn't put the thought question to you.
The way you wrote what she said..."she said if"...people don't say if...they ASK if so i think the way you worded that made people think of it as a statement rather than a question to you.
Most of the studies that have been done show that the majority of gays have gone through abuse or lived in an environment that influenced their sexual orientation with only a very few being born that way.
I have talked with high school students who figured that claiming to be gay was much safer than the heterosexual relationships with the high pressure out there on having sex. The high pregnancy & abortion rates definitely made choosing to be gay rather than a prude.
For people who hate labels..sexuality is NOTHING BUT LABELS
