What should I do if I suspect that my youth group advisor is a lesbian?

My church youth group advisor has been with us for about 3 months now and we all love and appreciate her for being an excellent leader...however, I'm now having a strong suspicion that she is a lesbian. I added her MySpace I while back and for her default she has a pic of her and another woman...I would have overlooked this but there are other pics like this with different women(they are all fully clothed, dont worry).

I can relate strongly to it because I'm bisexual myself, however I'm not sure how to act around her. Please understand that I'm very liberal and I support gay marriage, but since we are in a Christian group many of us don't feel the same way.

I thought about going to my pastor about homosexuality before, but I'm gravitating to her now not only because she many be gay but also because she too has a liberal mindset, having annouced her OK of wearing jeans in church whereas my pastor is very set in his ways of morality. Should I say anything to her about it?

You're asking all the wrong questions. Is her advice and leadership not pertinent? Does she genuinely care about her group? If you tell your pastor about her, then you should just as soon tell him about yourself. And where would that get you? No further than anyone else gets when they engage in gossip. if her hearts in the right place, then you have no worries. If you're wrong, then you've opened a can of worms you don't wanna eat. And you will eat them all if you do.

Being as how you're bi, sounds to me like you may have an ally if you have a personal crisis. This is a situation where The Golden Rule applies. Treat her as you would want to be treated. With respect.

Why should you do anything?

It's none of your business; her sexuality has no bearing on her ability to do the job.

She would probably be easier to talk to about homosexuality than your pastor. Her orientation really isn't your business, though.

Don't say anything to your pastor or anyone else concerning your suspicion that she is gay. For one thing, you are jumping to conclusions through pure speculation.

And what difference could it possibly make even if she is? The only thing to consider is how well she does her job.

If you do then you are a very shallow person. Would you want someone to do that to you if they questioned who you are? If she is then good for her, it's her choice and since your in a relgious group then you should understand that she's responsible for what she does on judgement day. Her life, her choice.

I don't understand your question at all; the clarification you offer makes it even more difficult to understand what your problem might be.

If you feel Christianity isn't compatible with some forms of sexuality then... what are you doing being affiliated with it?

On the other hand, following the teachings of Jesus will require you to love your neighbor.

If you are unable to accept the leadership of a person because of their sexuality, that's your prerogative, but I don't think it follows, personally, that being a lesbian somehow invalidates or disqualifies someone as a leader - but I do have a criticism for both of you:

If you're unable to be honest about yourself then your identification with Christian religion is an empty sham.

It's my opinion that most Christianity is an empty sham, though, so take that how you find it. If the Christians around you are making a big deal out of sexuality, then they really aren't "Christians" at all, are they?

do not say anything. it is not your business. you say she's an excellent leader so why would you want to out her and risk her being asked to leave the group?

mind your own business, you nosey little thing.
