Transgender women are women.
Women who love women exclusively are lesbians.
So, yes.
Slight correction: the contemporaneous usage of the word lesbian in the queer community does not specifically say it is wlw, but that it is femme/non-masculine attraction to femininity/non-masculinity. In that sense it may be more closely aligned with being sapphic than strictly wlw.
Trans status is about gender identity; gay/lesbian/bisexual is about sexual orientation.
So, a trans woman (MtF) who likes women is a lesbian, because she identifies as a woman who likes women. Her sex identified at birth is not considered a legitimate factor. Likewise, a trans woman (MtF) who likes men is not a gay man, she is a straight woman.
Yes, women can be lesbians.
As a treat.
They can have a little slommy
Or full-time, or even both
People are currently fighting over who gets to definitively answer that question.
Do I have to get a divorce if it comes out that the answer is no?
No, you start throwing bricks
Yes
Ok
We can close the post now.
I guess so
Yup.
Cisgender woman here, I’ve had two trans girlfriends in the past. They were definitely 100% women … I checked very very thoroughly.
Wait.
Are you saying cisgender women can be lesbians too?
Yes, these days that’s allowed too - we’re living in the future, after all!
Ah, but were they lesbians? Did you make sure they weren’t bi or pan?
One of them definitely was, lol
What did you check?
Their lesbian license, obviously
Yes cuddling with my gf right now
Can women be lesbian 🤔
About a third of all trans women are as a matter of fact
About 2/3 of Lemmy as well /s
That’s just blahaj.zone .
Thats interesting.
Trans is their sexual identity and lesbian is their sexual preference. They are not mutually exclusive.
Pretty sure their sexual (or gender) identity is “woman”. The trans thing is usually more a stumbling block than an identity.
Yes you are right
Gender identity*
Ive been a trans lesbian for 5 years now. Its great. Im technically pan but i dont really hook up with guys… women are just so 🤌🤤
If born on the island of Lesbos then, yes, definitely… if born somewhere else then the answer to this question might depend on where you get your definition of words.
Love is love, whatever, but sometimes labels can do damage.
Otherwise it’s just sparkling homosexuality
Woman*
*lesbian_style
That’s a bit cumbersome, isn’t it? I’m fine with “lesbian woman”, no matter where they’re from 💖
Oh my, I’m having a hard time setting the markdown right…
If they’re not from the Lesbos region pf greece it’s only sparkling homosexuality
Yes.
yes
