What are Lesbians?

Lesbian

Google defines this word as 'a homosexual woman', but this is not entirely accurate. The definition of a lesbian is a woman or non-binary person who is exclusively attracted to other women or (some) nonbinary people. Lesbianism is the only sexuality that completely excludes men. This community is also inclusive of aspec identities, as it doesn't specify sexual or romantic attraction, but only specifies that the attraction an individual does experience is exclusively towards women and some non-binary people.

As the non-binary label is broad and diverse, all sexualities include some non-binary people. In the case of lesbianism, it includes womaligned non-binary people and on a case-by-case basis it also includes unaligned non-binary people who are comfortable identifying as a lesbian.

Lesbian can be used by anyone that is not male or uses mainly male-aligned labels, if you are a man or identity as a manaligned gender, you CANNOT be lesbian.

Lipstick lesbian flag & All-pink flag:

Prior to the use of this flag, the 'lipstick' lesbian flag was most commonly used, but was reformed after being revealed to be created by a racist and being exclusionary of butch, masculine and non-gender conforming lesbians. Although the similar flag without the lipstick mark exists called the 'all pink flag', it is rarely used due to bearing connotations and meaning similar to the lipstick lesbian flag.
