Self-identified Heterosexual Women Who Engage in Same-Sex Sexual Behavior: A Thematic Analysis
Author(s)

Abstract
The allomothering hypothesis maintains that allomothering is a survival strategy that women use to pair bond with other women, a strategy that is used to help women and their offspring survive under certain conditions in the Environment of Evolutionary Adaptedness (EEA). A thematic analysis was used to examine any potential commonalities among responses to a question asking self-identified heterosexual and mostly straight women about their same-sex sexual behavior experiences and why they engaged in the behavior. The analysis found five dominant themes, which will be described in relation to the allomothering hypothesis.
