For women, often when they get divorced, especially after a long-term relationship, two things happen. One, they want to explore themselves with people, and part of that exploration may be exploring their sexuality. You could say that if it has been a very traumatic divorce, to a certain extent they will become turned off men. However, that is not a real cause. That, perhaps, is just a temporary situation. The real reason is that they are exploring themselves and giving themselves the opportunity to discover what they really like, and therefore they are able to accept that them having a lesbian relationship is something that perhaps they've thought about on and off all along, but never had the opportunity to explore.
