For those who don’t know, it stands for gender non-conformity (aka you can be a lesbian without having to be a woman if you identify with the term)

Also, yes lesbian generally means non-men loving non-men, but there are always exceptions (i.e. trans men, enby men, etc who could all be considered men but may still identify as lesbians for their own personal reasons) I’m basically that flipped (I’m not a man, agender but with a hint of femme-androgyne identification, but I still identify as gay (as in mlm))

It’s really quite simple… Anyone who isn’t a cis man can be a lesbian.

I could be considered transfem based on my identification, but I still like using mlm gay because I identify with the term!!

Basically, but people who are enby men/genderfluid could be considered cis in some way and trans in another way depending on what gender they identify as (and that could be read as a ‘cis man’ but don’t actually identify as one) The one rule that has no exceptions is: you are a lesbian if you identify as a lesbian
