Gay women types

What type of lesbian are you? Your official guide to the different lesbian types, aesthetics, and lifestyles

Maybe you are a neonate gay who has recently appear out, and you’re wondering, “what type of lesbian am I?” No matter what type of lesbian you are, there is a place for you in the queer community. 

The world of lesbians has its own very special ecosystem in which many different types of dykes live. So how many different types of lesbians are there? 

The correctness is, there are more types of lesbians than most linear people would even know what to do with.

There are butches, or more masculine-leaning lesbians. There are femmes, or more feminine-leaning lesbians. And then there are soft butches, sporty dykes, futches, lipstick lesbians, LUGs (lesbians until graudation), studs, baby dykes, performative king lesbians, pillow princesses, celesbians, Justin-Bieber lookalikes, and everything in between, all of which you can read more about on the HER glossary.

The best part about lesbian labels is that they can create a meaning of camaraderie and belonging. There is nothing quite l

The 5 Main Lesbian Types

Butch, Femme, Tomboy, Athlete or the Boy Babe? Which Lesbian Type are you?

Fun Fact: Lesbians don’t mature on trees. 

Now once you’re finished imagining that wood (I can give you a minute if you’d like?) my point is that (at least where I live) you can’t just wander down the road and bump in to lesbian ladies in abundance. They just don’t seem to exist “in the wild.” But entering “The Scene” can be pretty daunting too, so what’s a girl to do? When I first came out I mind the hard part was over, but I couldn’t have been more erroneous. And I was so confused!

The gay scene has so many sub-categories in most cities, and although I hate categorisation, stereotyping is very different. As a group of people who have inevitably struggled with their identity and sexuality, we definitely contain a culture of sub-categories within LGBT culture, and this is true throughout the world. In general, when out and about, we tend to place on somewhat of a front, which can product in quite the mix of lesbians. (Again, I’ll give you a minute to have a consider about that.)

•Chapstick Lesbian•

A chapstick queer woman is also recognizable as a gentle butch or androgynous. She usually dresses quite casually and does not wear make-up. A chapstick lesbian is 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 compact of those of a "lipstick lesbian."

Different types of lesbians and lesbian stereotypes have been around for a drawn-out time. Butch and femme? You’ve heard of them. It’s a stereotype that says sapphics fall into either lesbian category, depending on their aesthetics and mannerisms. 

Today’s lesbians and sapphic people might be less likely to fall into the butch/femme dichotomy. But the stereotypes once served a great purpose. The masculine and hyperfeminine aesthetics of butch and femme stereotypes helped lesbians recognize each other in mainstream society. Now, a mix of butch and femme has birthed a recent type of lesbian: the “futch” or “stem” (stud + femme). 

But of course, lesbian stereotypes and unlike types of lesbians travel much further than the masculine and feminine spectrum of gender expressions. There’s a whole slew of lesbian types.

Lesbian categories derive from several things, like aesthetics. Butch and femme lesbian labels certainly gather typing from looks. 

Lesbian labels also come from a lesbian’s behaviors. Consider U-Haul lesbian
