if you have any romantic attraction to dudes, then maybe you might not be a lesbian

then again, people absolutely fluctuate so i would say be as curious as you want

i had a similar experience (im gae so kinda the opposite xD) and i ended up realizing that i wasnt able to have that romantic connection, if that helps

Totally. The short version, in the words of a lestastic bud of mine is, "Everybody's allowed at least one guy they'd change teams for." If you're of a certain generation, it's often David Tennant.

labels aren't precise, use whatever you want. eg, aro people can occasionally experience romantic attraction and they're still aro.

generally, the definition of lesbian is "woman/woman aligned/not man person who is attracted to other women/women aligned/not men people" but things are complicated lol. just go w/ whatever fits u best.

also the split attraction model is used by some- u can have a different sexual vs romantic attractions.

who even cares bro, im a gay man and ive been in a relationship with a nonbinary woman for like 4 years! also kinda maybe have something pseudo-romantic-queerplatonic thing going on with a lesbian/trixic person, again, as a gay man who is gay and a man. sexuality is weird and fluid! use whatever labels you want. at the end of the day, labels are just a quick and dirty way to describe yourself, not a box you have to fit perfectly in all the time.

lesbian here!

it's a pretty tricky subject. i think it really depends on the type of attraction? if you like this guy, but it's a queer-platonic or aesthetic attraction, then yes, absolutely you're still a lesbian.

if it's a situation where you are attracted to him romantically or sexually, and can see yourself in a happy relationship with a man, (or other men in the future) then you probably aren't a lesbian?

it's absolutely okay to be wrong about labels, and there is no shame in it. i'd ask yourself about the type of attraction you're experiencing, then go from there.

les as in lesbian?


if that's the case then no. A lesbian is identified as a woman (or non man/masc aligned) who lokes women (or femme aligned people)

of course, there are plenty of other lables and you don't need to label yourself if you don't like to


edit: why the thumbs down?I'm just defining what a lesbian is-

In my thoughts? Absolutely! Labels are wacky, and it's just liking who u like!! If someone tries to tell u otherwise, they don't have ur unique experience :3
