Great video, thank you

Yes. A lesbian is a woman who loves other women. Feel however you want about yourself, but sexuality is still real. Same with gay or homosexual men.

"I'm a lesbian!" Also "non-binary" lesbians when they're perceived as women: 😡

I feel like a failed woman. I have no sisterhood-the femininity that came naturally for my peers was something I had to perform. Eventually I realized that most women actually enjoy being women. And I don’t. So I decided to leave expectations behind and be who I want to be. I resent being a woman, and I feel terribly estranged from womanhood. These wounds are still very fresh, but I know they will heal with time. My female socialization, although painful, is a part of who I am, and no one can take it away from me. I love women, and I can relate to 70’s lesbians rejection of the gender binary. Therefore, I identify as a (butch) lesbian. I also identify as nonbinary. Maybe that will change, I don’t know. I’m still young. But I know who I am right now, and I finally love myself for the first time.

Thank you for this wonderful video, and for sharing your wisdom and knowledge ^ ^

Nope. Switch is either on or off.. one or the other. When it's in the middle.. still on or off.

This didn't help at all. Never addresses the question in the title. An utter waste of 10:46 /thumbs down.

Yall can go do whatever else.. Leave us out. You're not part of LGB

Don't need medical experts. Shit is really simple. We know what heterosexual is.. we know what homosexual is.

Cis is not a qualifier that means anything to me. And please don't ever call me Queer. I'm gay.. I'm a lesbian.. a dyke.. Not queer.

Lesbian means female + female.

Ok so you are saying "as a historian" people who identify as female that have male body parts are female? No fam. Sorry

Non man and not woman or female is a weird problem you are having. Your sex is female.. Sapphic and lesbian means women who love women. Same sex attracted females. Stop being weird. Lesbians are female homosexuals.

This is really homophobic.. I don't like this.

If you don't consider yourself a woman or female.. Clearly not lesbian. Please go play in the pansexual or bisexual box where anything goes.

You can be an androgynous woman.. a butch also. This shit is weird.. women are not loving being women. Crazy.. "non men" I heard someone say. Ridiculous. Why would you ever associate yoyourself with anything other than being a bold beautiful woman?

I'm sorry.. what do you think about being a woman? A female? That's so shitty that you think so little of women.

Ok so women and being female is what to you?

What a great video. Thank you! I identify as nonbinary, didn’t choose a new name, and feel sexually attracted to AFAB humans who identify as queer, nonbinary, or lesbian. This has been a challenge regarding connecting with others. However, your positivity and excited energy give me hope for our species to grow into a more accepting, open-minded community that eventually worries less about sexuality and gender identity and more about socioeconomic and environmental issues.

Yes, Im pretty sure there are plenty of autistic lesbians.

**cue the TERFs storming the comment section**

I m non binary lesbian.I m exist

I really appreciate the history of the language here. Thanks.

Only if they are bio female.

If you have time could you please drop some peer review articles on the original way lesbian use to be described. I searched and searched and couldn’t find any.

Wouldn’t putting a penis in a vagina have brought about straight the same way? I don’t know but I seems like it should because how would it have become straight?

Love this!! Nonbinary lesbian here 🥰🥰🥰

I always growing up understood that there were Gay Men and Gay Women.. meaning to me that they were attracted to the same sex ONLY... then non binary was men attracted to both sexes and women attracted to both sexes. We called it 'swinging both ways" How wrong I was its seems in todays world - its all very confusing now. I saw Lesbian as a term that homosexual MEN - Gay men forced onto women to exclude them from the term Gay as it was more pleasant a word than homosexual and they wanted the 'happy positive GAY word terminology for themselves". Also a word for them that excluded women because they really did not like women or being associated under the same 'banner' of Gay with women who liked women. Meaning they wished to own Gay almost a misogyny ownership of the word Gay and women must have Lesbian. I prefer my ignorance version because its simple to me .. men who like only men, women who like only women and gay swingers who go both ways.... all Gay and happy with whom they find attraction to and they only seeking relations with those that feel the same and not forcing themselves on those that do not.... forced understanding or acceptance is impossible and leads to no understanding, adversarial views and aggression.

Blah, Blah, Blah, a Lesbian is a BIOLOGICAL WOMAN who is ONLY attracted to other BIOLOGICAL WOMEN!!!! " Non binary's" are not women by their own definition......If you are not a woman you can't be a lesbian.... No amount of rewording or newly found research on lesbians will ever change that.....And this is from a straight Black Man!

The eyes of a serpent. And on your belly you shall crawl.

I've been out since 1982, and I always used the word lesbian. I'm very feminine presenting, and I've usually been in Old School butch femme relationships.

Look at woman is talking........She is talking...

I don't think it's just that generation being empowered by the word. I respect them greatly for what they fought for and went through. I found myself to have somewhat mirror them in my own experience as a same sex attracted women. I had alot of self hatred and disgust towards the word lesbian and not only that but internalized misogyny I had been carrying with me and it took me years to accept who I am and then even more time to accept the word lesbian to define me. When I accepted lesbian as a label for myself it was in itself a liberation. I accepted who I was fully and rejected the negative connotations and idea surrounding the word. I find myself being very defensive over the word because it directly tied to my identity/experience as a women. I rejected my feminity because of the projection society gave me just like I rejected the word lesbian. I always felt boyish and never fit in with girls which made me push feminity away further but I am proud to be a women despite most of my life hating who I was. I believed the only way to be a "decent" lesbian was to be the lesbian that society said was pretty and acceptable. So much of my life and identity has been shrouded in misogyny and a unpleasant projection of feminity which is barely tolerated. I'm finally proud to be a women and a lesbian. I can't help but feel so many other girls my age fail to self reflect and dig deeper into themselves and use other labels to identify out of something instead of accepting it/themselves in the process.

LGB and T are totally different. LGB is a sex-based sexual orientation based on material reality but T is an ideological construct based on the incoherent 'gender identity' (no material reality) and reifies old stereotypes. The T was force-teamed onto the LGB in order to gain greater acceptance but LGB has nothing in common w/ T or any of the other alphabet soup.

Can non-binary people be lesbians? No. Non-binary people do not exist. Stop encouraging delusions!! We don't tell bipolar people that the voices they hear from the TV when the TV is shut off are real, we put them on lithium. 2 genders, folks. You are not special because of what you identify as. You are special because of your deeds. Most people no longer give a shit about sexuality. Those are your sexual behaviors, not your fucking genders!!

This was so interesting, thank you. The ideas that gay people came up with that they had the opposite sexed soul inside them is pretty chilling, because the modern idea of a gender identity is also like a sexed soul - or gendered soul, as you know the two terms were conversationally used interchangeably until very recently in history... I say chilling, because the implications of this are that transgenderism is frequently criticised for being the new form of gay conversion therapy - in some countries where it's illegal to be gay, you can get a free sex-change quicker than a boob job... Also, you must have seen the recent progression of events with Stonewall, especially that concerning female lesbian women and the assertions that male bodied trans women could now be lesbians and that if a female bodied lesbian woman refused to have these people in her dating pool, she would be transphobic... And then there was the formation of the LGB alliance out of concern for LGB people since certainly the L and and the female B portions of this group of people felt that their interests were not being served by Stonewall any more, because of their serving the wants of the male-bodied T people above and beyond all others... I have heard further testimony to this from a great number of female lesbians now and also a new group of people known as detransitioners, many of whom are lesbian women and who are ex-transmen, who tell very similar tales of being told by trans women to shut up because of their supposed "male privilege" and it all sounded a bit like straight men bullying the women who refused to consider having sex with them, namely lesbian women, which is totally outrageous and a sure sign that there is a deeply unhealthy set of individuals who would fall under the identity of trans-women who are essentially male bodied, heterosexuals - who Blanchard would consider Autogynephiles. So that means you have gays and lesbians presenting as the opposite sex and having hormones and surgeries to further this process who are then announcing they are straight (trans'd the gay away) and a group of women-hating, woman-parodying straight men with paraphilic fetishes who are announcing they are lesbians and then trying to order actual lesbians to sleep with them!! Chilling indeed, dont you think?

I'm relatively confident if you "identify" as "non-binary" I.E not a woman. You can't be a lesbian. (A woman who has sex with other women) by your own declaration

I know we can because thats what i am but i don't remember what the flag isin't caller but i know what it looks like

Trans women are biological man so no man can't be a lesbian

I think pansexual or queer are good terms for nonbinary people or people attracted to nonbinary people to use. Hopefully everyone can find a term that makes them happy and comfortable.

I don't Identify with @#$%&

There is no such thing as non binary in humans, change my mind.

Don’t you love how “educators” are always obsessed with sex and Vice versa.

No.

We can go through the dictionary definitions: Lesbian: "gay woman" Gay: "homosexual" Homo: "same" Sexual: "relating to sex" Woman: "adult human female" So in conclusion, a lesbian is: "an adult human female who is attracted to the same sex (females)"

Boring ...

Considering non-binary does not exist the question is pointless. Just a brainwashed women, leftism is a mental disorder.

This was wonderful. Thanks for bringing history and context into this conversation. 💖👍

Once we get to the point of being able to express ourselves as we wish, and have relationships with whomever we hit it off with, why all the labels? This makes no sense to me, and turns into narcissism and mental masturbation.

Interesting video. I was transfixed by your energy and delivery and found myself having to watch the whole video 😛 I honestly cannot figure out why it's become so awful and horrendous to acknowledge one's birth sex - one's literal, original physical anatomy. A non-binary person has a body. And that body in well over 99% of human beings is male or female. Biologists use the terms "male" and "female" to denote the small gamete and large gamete producers of all anasogamous systems. It's nothing to get riled up about. It's just life doing what it does. "Same sex attraction" is just that - being attracted to the same _sex_ . So if your body is female and you are attracted to other natal females, you can still think of yourself as lesbian even if you think of yourself as non-binary. Ultimately, non-binary is a conceptual distinction, anyway. It's there I guess to help people feel more comfortable with the way they relate to society's gender norms on a psychological level. Some people don't mind all that so much and they're just gender non-conforming, or maybe they don't think about any of it at all. I don't believe there's any _actual_ distinction beyond the concept. For example, if you think about what it means to be "transgender", originally it relates to sexual anatomy. Because gender dysphoria is initially triggered by someone feeling they're "in the wrong body" as it pertains to their sexual anatomy. As if nature gave them the "wrong parts", so to speak. Especially these days with so-called "trans kids", there is a virtual obsession with getting kids access to puberty blockers, HRT, and SRS in order to get their BODIES to look like that of the opposite sex. And those things are considered absolutely essential in order to avoid suicidality in kids and teens. So the emphasis is on aligning the sexual anatomy with the internal sense of gender. So apparently gender and sex ARE the same thing or it wouldn't be necessary to align them in this way. There would be no incongruance between the two that one needed to "fix" with all of this modern medical technology. People could just be whatever gender and whatever sex without needing to change anything. But then we come to the "non-binary" distinction. There is no physical anatomy that relates to non-binary. There is no non-binary "sex" that aligns with the non-binary gender (in the human species anyway - and people with DSDs are not "in between" sexes, that's a complete misunderstanding due to the misnomer "intersex"). Nothing to "transition" to. So a person with a female body who is same sex attracted but identifies as non-binary can still be a lesbian. I mean, I respect pronouns myself but when I see people I don't know, I instinctively read their sex because I'm an animal and animals are hardwired to reproduce. That's what life does afterall. So we are unconsciously embedded with the instinct to read the sex of other human animals. So, someone can tell me they're non-binary and I respect that but I will always _see_ a male or female standing there in front of me. I mean, there's no non-binary sex for that instinctual sex reader to read. So I can't make my unconscious brain see something that doesn't exist.
