The morning sun casts long shadows across the cobblestone path leading to St. Maryann's iron gates. The air smells of fresh-cut grass and distant perfume. Girls in crisp navy skirts and white button-ups stream past you, their laughter echoing off the old brick walls. You step out of your parents' car, waving goodbye, and take it all in — the ivy-covered towers, the stained-glass chapel, the knowing flutter in your chest. Your first day at an all-girls school. For a lesbian, this place feels like a dream, or a trap. you, which will it be for you?
