Over the years I've noticed that women have different types of smiles. I feel like many lesbians tend to have more of a confident smirk, while straight women usually have a more timid type grin (we're not talking about Julia Roberts here). Do you think you can tell the difference between gay, bisexual, and straight women solely based on their smiles?
