Lesbians, as a group, have been under-researched to date. This study examines the lived experience of lesbians in the hopes that stereotypical and presumptive notions about lesbian psychological development will be replaced with knowledge based upon research data. The experiences of lesbians who have a later resolution of their sexual identity and the effect a later resolution has on their work identity and professional attainment is explored in this retrospective qualitative study. Nine subjects who resolve their lesbian sexual orientation in their late twenties or later are interviewed twice using a life story narrative methodology. A post-modernist framework and Jessica Benjamin's theory of intersubjectivity anchor the study. Specificity and individuality replace the idea of a single metanarrative to explain what it means to be lesbian. The intrapsychic and the interpersonal experience of the participants are both privileged.

520 $a Lesbians, as a group, have been under-researched to date. This study examines the lived experience of lesbians in the hopes that stereotypical and presumptive notions about lesbian psychological development will be replaced with knowledge based upon research data. The experiences of lesbians who have a later resolution of their sexual identity and the effect a later resolution has on their work identity and professional attainment is explored in this retrospective qualitative study. Nine subjects who resolve their lesbian sexual orientation in their late twenties or later are interviewed twice using a life story narrative methodology. A post-modernist framework and Jessica Benjamin's theory of intersubjectivity anchor the study. Specificity and individuality replace the idea of a single metanarrative to explain what it means to be lesbian. The intrapsychic and the interpersonal experience of the participants are both privileged.
520 $a A holistic-content data analysis reveals several findings. Lesbians who resolve their sexual orientation later are not a homogeneous group. While they share many commonalities, there are also significant differences in their life experiences. It cannot be assumed that a later resolution is necessarily due to homophobia, either external or internalized. Important aspects of sexual and work identity need not be completed in adolescence or early adulthood for healthy and happy psychological outcomes to be obtained. When lesbian sexual orientation is fully resolved, even when it occurs later in life, there is a noticeable positive impact in the realm of work. Finally, a more nuanced and complex view of sexual and work identity development can help clinicians discern the difference between individual specificity and pathology.
