    From LUGs to futches, butches and lipstick lesbians. My question is which one am I? The easiest way to describe me I guess is to post a pic of the female imagine I identify with the most from film.

    Which would be Mary Kathrine from Epic!

    Would she / I be a blue jeans lesbian? Ooooor what?

    Maybe that's like... chapstick lesbian? Maybe?

    I find it hard to match myself to one of these. It's probably "soft butch" though, as much as I hate labels.

    I'm inclined to agree there, it's something else entirely. From the picture I'd go with chapstick lesbian, but I don't feel like you should have to have a label for yourself. Just keep being you.

    Thanks for the little list :wink:
    I suppose from there, I come under: gold star, femme/blue jeans femme, and baby dyke :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:.
    I feel like such a novice within the lesbian and LGBTQ community as a whole, but I suppose it'll come with age and experience (of which I have none. XD)

    Wait a minute, I didn't know that a femme is technically only attracted to butch-looking women. I identify as femme because I actually don't like lipstick. Should I change it on my profile?

    "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."

    I am now using this term to refer to lesbians from Texas and no one can stop me

    I'm a gold star, soon to be Lone Star (I hope), tomboy femme/ blue jeans femme/ lipstick lesbian (minus the makeup and fashion sense)/ chapstick lesbian/ baby lesbian (I'd rather be peed on than use the word "dyke" on myself).

    I've used "tomboy femme," but I'm into other tomboy femmes, so I'm not sure if it's OK to use the word "femme" since it implies that I'm attracted to butches...

    I was thinking the same thing.

    ---------- Post added 12th Jun 2014 at 03:37 PM ----------

    I would be: lipstick (though I prefer lip gloss or balm), a baby lesbian, and a future gold star.

    I thought we talked about it in previous posts, that Femme lesbians are only attracted to Butch women. We don't date girly girls. Girls who date other girly girls, are Lipstick lesbians, however, the terms are used interchangably. I don't think the younger generations are aware of this and use the two terms to mean the same thing. They are not. Not all girly looking lesbians are Femmes. We are a different thing all together. Same with Butches. Younger lesbians think all masculine looking lesbians are Butches. They are not. They only date Femmes, and they are chivalrous and more old fashioned, than general lesbian gals.(not misogynistic or sexist, however). The Butch/Femme labels designate certain behaviors and expected standards. Hence the Butch/Femme dynamic or 'dance' that older lesbians refer to. A masculine looking woman loving woman, who does not follow the behaviors of a Butch, is considered a general lesbian. Saying you are Butch or Femme is like saying you are a Vegan(different standards although you don't eat meat, either), not just Vegetarian, but a type of Vegetarian, if that makes sense. One is not better than the other, it just is.

    This does not mean you can't say you are a Femme or Butch, because these days everyone has lost the true meaning of it, and will understand what you mean. However, if you run into an over 35 lesbian, they will be confused.(like I was at first here on this site.) because we remember the older terms. The Deviantart list does a pretty good job of explaining the differences. If you want to say you are Femme and are comfortable, I don't see why you should not use that label. After all, we get to label ourselves, others don't get to do it for us.

    Personally I am sticking to Queer Femme, because I feel that Femme is my gender, and Queer is my designation of acknowledging my past with males. I personally am not 100% lesbian, never will be. I am 100% Femme, however.

    Lol that's why I started putting lipstick lesbian but I also use lipstick lesbian because I like how it sounds and it means the same as femme.
    I'm a baby lesbian and a lipstick lesbian I'm looking to be adopted by a more experienced lesbian
    preferably another lipstick /femme lesbian .

    I wonder, is there a kind that 'chapsticks' specifically date too, because that's what I consider myself....Or is that a new term?

    I always thought chapsticks date any type of lesbian really depends on the chapsticks tastes in girls . :confused:

    *tips hat* *kisses girl's hand* I'm a Lone Star, Madam. ( rides off to the sunset on a horse)

    That was cheesy. I will call myself this if I encounter a gay girl from another state just to try to charm her. Maybe it'll work.

    Gold star, Chapstick/boi, and a bunch of other labels. I feel fancy.
