Love is timeless. It doesn't matter who you love, what matters is that you do.

(8,976 posts)Why would you think these women are LGBT? Am I missing something? My takeaway was about the fence and a sense of separation and perhaps departure.

(34,069 posts)but no reference to the two women being LGBT, which was the question you were responding to.

IMHO a very passionate kiss. I think it's beautiful.Read the story of that kiss...look at it.
I for one have never kissed a female family member on the lips, and I am a very warm and loving person. I have always been kissy huggy with family and friends, however I kiss them on the cheek. As I said love is love. To me that looks like passion, we don't need a book about it, it tells it's own story.
I am not sure what you are asking.

(34,069 posts)In response to someone else who questioned why you assumed they were a lesbian couple, you said you didn't add it - that it came from the first link. But the only text I can find at link is this: Two women kissing over the fence. Photo source: http://collections.yadvashem.org/photosarchive/en-us/96093.html I have the same question about why you are assuming it is a lesbian couple - or, since you said you didn't add the text, where the text came from since I can't find it at the link you provided.
Families differ. I strongly prefer not to kiss anyone on the lips unless I am romantically involved with them - but I have to be very close to rude to avoid having one planted on my lips by every member (male and female) in my spouse's family. That is just part of their family tradition. Their kisses with each other would look pretty much like that one.

(396 posts)About 2 decades ago a friend was telling me about the great aunt she had just inherited money from. My friend said, "I was always sad that she never married, never had love in her life." Then she went on to tell me that her aunt did have a really good woman friend, in fact they lived together for 40 years until the friend died. I stared at my friend for a long time: I saw it hit her, "You mean, you mean, her friend, she & her friend were lovers." I nodded. She said, to her credit, "I'm so glad; I'm so glad she had that happiness."
I'm glad those days are in the past, not that people don't still live in the closet, but that LGBT love is no longer invisible.
Love the picture! Kick!
