Administrators FlyJ Posted January 22, 2015 Administrators Share Posted January 22, 2015 I found this write up and decided to share. If you are a Lesbian and questioning what type of Lesbian you are, then this guide is for you! Lesbian Lesbian is a term most widely used in the English language to describe sexual and romantic desire between females. The word may be used as a noun, to refer to women who identify themselves or who are characterized by others as having the primary attribute of female homosexuality, or as an adjective, to describe characteristics of an object or activity related to female same-sex desire. Dyke Another word for lesbian. Usually is only used by people who are gay, lesbian, bisexual or trans. A straight person using this word may offend some people. Note: Dyke with a "y" is a lesbian. Dike with an "i" is for damming water. Gold Star Lesbian A gold star lesbian is a lesbian who has never slept with a man and has no intention of ever sleeping with a man. Lone Star Lesbian A Lone Star Lesbian is not a lesbian from Texas. A Lone Star Lesbian is someone who has only had sex with one person in their life. Straight and bisexual people can be Lone Stars too. Lipstick Lesbian A lipstick lesbian is a woman who loves other women, but also loves her clothes and makeup and shoes. She tends to dress on the feminine side. Also known as Femme or Fem. Alternate Definition: A feminine lesbian. It can be used interchangeably with femme to indicate a feminine lesbian, but strictly speaking, a femme is usually attracted to masculine, or butch, lesbians and a lipstick lesbian is attracted to other feminine lesbians. Often thought of as demure, submissive creatures, many, if not all femmes and lipstick lesbians are quite strong, independent women. Chapstick Lesbian A chapstick lesbian is also known as a soft butch or androgynous. She usually dresses quite casually and does not wear make-up. The term Chapstick Lesbian was popularized after an episode of the TV show Ellen. Someone asked Ellen if she were a lipstick lesbian or what. Ellen replied, she was more of a chapstick lesbian. Alternate Definition: A female homosexual whose gender identity is slightly to the femme side of neutral on the femme-butch continuum of gender presentation but whose appearance and preferences stop short of those of a "lipstick lesbian." Femme A feminine lesbian. Also known as a Lipstick Lesbian. Sometimes spelled Fem. Blue Jeans Femme A Blue Jean Femme is a lesbian who identifies as femme, or feminine, but prefers jeans and more casual clothing to dresses and skirts. Butch A woman who adopts what would be considered masculine characteristics. Stone Butch A stone butch is a lesbian who gets her pleasure from pleasing her partner. She does not like to be touched sexually. Pillow Queen A Pillow Queen is someone who likes to be on the receiving end of sex. She likes to be pleasured and not reciprocate. Soft Butch A soft butch is a lesbian whose appearance is generally androgynous. She may dress and act in a masculine manner, but be soft and more feminine in the inside. Also, a soft butch can be someone who falls somewhere between butch and femme, but closer to the butch side. Stem A stem is a lesbian who identifies somewhere between "stud" and "femme". Also known as Kiki. Kiki Kiki is a term that was used in the lesbian bar culture of the 1950s and 1960s to describe someone who was neither butch nor femme. At that time, the bar culture was very much into roles and most women were pressured to choose either butch or femme. Futch Dani Campbell, a lesbian firefighter from Florida who was one of the contestants on MTV's Shot at Love with Tila Tequila coined the word "Futch." She says the word describes someone who is neither feminine nor butch, but a cross between. Boi For lesbians, a boi is a woman who is biologically female, but has a boyish appearance or presentation. A boi may be lesbian identified or s/he may be trans identified. For gay men a boi is a gay man who is boyish or young in appearance or identity. Power Dyke A Power Dyke is a lesbian who has gained a position of power, either within the LGBT community, or in the world at large. She could be the head of a non-profit agency, a politician or successful in business. Also known as Power Lesbian or a Suit. Diesel Dyke A Diesel Dyke is a very butch or manly lesbian, especially one who is very aggressive. In some lesbian circles Diesel Dyke refers to a very butch Big-Rig (or other heavy equipment) driving lesbian. Also known as Bulldagger. Sport Dyke A sport dyke is a lesbian, who more than anything, identifies with being an athlete. She may also dress in a manner that would give the impression she is an athlete, like baseball caps, sweatshirts and jeans. Baby Dyke A young lesbian or someone who is just coming out of the closet. Also know as Dyke in Training. Common Misspellings include: baby dike. Stud A dominant lesbian, usually butch, often African American. Hasbian A hasbian is a woman who used to identify as a lesbian and date women, but is now dating men. LUG LUG stands for "Lesbian until Graduation". A LUG is a woman who experiments with women during her college years, but eventually decides she is straight and marries a man. Drag King A drag king is a woman who dresses to look like a man, usually for performance. Drag kings are often lesbian, but not always. Bisexual A person who is sexually and emotionally attracted to both women and men. Pansexual A pansexual is someone who is attracted people of many genders. Also known as Omnisexual. Lesbophile A lesbophile is someone who loves or appreciates lesbians. Gayelle Gayelle is a new word that some women are trying to get to replace the word "lesbian" in the English language. According to gayelle.org, the word lesbian is antiquated and not cheerful or fun. So, they want to create a new word that they feel better fits their perception of themselves. Only time will tell if this new word takes off. I personally do not believe in labels but i found this write up interesting and figured most people on here will enjoy reading it. Share your thots!
