Yeah, they're trying to convert you. Your existence as a woman sexually attracted to other women means there is a defined binary scale in regards to sexuality. This very fact challenges their insane mindset. I hate to say it so bluntly, but their attempts to 'convert' you into their cult is the last stage before they turn on you completely and blast you as being transphobic.

Then again, this is all from some old-ass dude who thankfully never had to grow up with this craziness. For me, there will never be 'middle ground' with people who think like your friends, because I exist on a plane where science is based in reality and they do not, so my responses to that kind of ideology is more absolute.

Suffice to say, if your friend isn't willing to respect you and your sexuality, they don't sound like much of a friend.
