Lesbians in Malaysia are considered a hidden population due to social stigma. Due to this, it is hard to determine this group as they are comfortable hiding behind their identity as heterosexual females. However, lately teenage girls are seen to be getting involved in the world of lesbianism and it can be traced through social media such as Facebook, Twitter and other websites where most of the followers are teenage girls. Therefore, this study aims to determine the tendency of teenagers being involved in lesbian activity. The methodology used in this study is through in-depth interview involving six teenage lesbians in Kuala Lumpur. From the outcome from the interviews, it was found that bad experiences with men, compatibility with their lesbian partner and childhood experiences account for the factors making girls become inclined to being involved in lesbian activity.
