13 Types Of Lesbians You're Most Likely To Meet IRL
By Rebecca Jane Stokes — Written on Apr 15, 2021
Even if you aren't a lesbian you've probably heard people use descriptors like "power lesbian" or "baby dyke."
Sure, you might have an inkling of what each word means, but when taken as a whole you have no clue what those in question are talking about.
Plus, as a straight person , it's really disrespectful to start using words like this at all, let alone with no understanding of what you're actually saying. 
Remember, this list is a broad generalization. Every person is different, we can't (and shouldn't) put everyone in an easy-to-understand box . This is more of a fun and sort of silly way in which lesbians refer to one another than some actual, real-life categorization system. 
If you don't know how to identify a person, talk to that person and find out what they are the most comfortable with. And know that every person is more than just a label. 
The activist lesbian is characterized by her passion for social justice especially as it pertains to being a lesbian.
Butch, femme, young, and old, the activist lesbian can look like any other type of lesbian you might meet. She's inspirational, passionate, and a lover of justice. 
A lipstick lesbian, or femme lesbian, loves to dress in a highly feminized or "girly" manner. She is the kind of lesbian that wears skirts, dresses, jewelry, lipstick, elaborate blowouts, and more because these ladies go all out. You can find them lurking in Sephora or shopping up at a store. 
The chapstick lesbian is the dividing line between a lipstick lesbian and a butch lesbian.
While butch lesbians revel in looking masculine and lipstick lesbians like looking ultra-girly, a chapstick lesbian (also known as soft butch) can go either way. She likes dressing up, but she's equally happy in jeans and button-down. 
The butch lesbian presents herself as tough, make-up free and masculine to one degree or another. This doesn't mean she's trying to look like a man, she's just subverting your idea of what a woman should look like and looking hot as hell in the process. 
Stone butch lesbian is a butch lesbian (see above) who derives sexual pleasure from giving other women pleasure. She is a giver — not a receiver — so do not under any circumstances get that noise twisted, my friends. 
There are bois in the gay community and the lesbian community. In the lesbian community, the boi lesbian is biologically female but presents as looking boyish. Bois tend to date older partners. 
The power lesbian is a lesbian with her life together! She's the leader in her field, the top of the top. She's the best surgeon, the best lawyer, the most influential policymaker. She's all about taking on that head honcho role and crushing it. Think Tabitha Coffey. 
A "hasbian" is a woman who once identified as a lesbian but now dates men and doesn't identify themselves as being straight or bi . They were a lesbian, now they are dating a man, and who knows what the future might hold. 
LUG stands for "lesbian until graduation." This is the undergraduate lesbian-curious girl , who is finally exploring her sexuality and discovering that she is attracted to women. It could be a phase, but that's up to them. 
The sport dyke isn't characterized so much as being attracted to other women as much as she is obsessed with her sport of choice. Not all lesbians are sport dykes, but all sport dykes are definitely lesbians. 
The baby dyke lesbian is a fond title given to a woman who has just come out of the closet and started becoming a part of the lesbian community. She could be femme, butch, chapstick, or anything else, but for now, she is characterized by her newness to the scene. 
The femme lesbian is a title for the lesbian who identifies as a woman and falls into the traditionally feminine mannerisms and style. Femme lesbians are sometimes mistaken for straight as they are very feminine and like to dress up and wear makeup and look like a straight girl, however, therefore sometimes they feel like they have to prove their gayness. 
The stud lesbian is a butch woman or a non-binary person who is of Black or LatinX descent. Only Black and LatinX women or non-binary people can use this lesbian term as it's a part of their community and not to be mistaken or meant to be seen as a stud if someone is butch. A stud and butch lesbians are two different types of lesbians and not all butch Black people are studs.

Twink is gay slang for a young man in his late teens to early twenties whose traits may include: general physical attractiveness ; a slim to average build; and a youthful appearance that may belie an older age.

The exact origins of the term twink are disputed. Some trace its first appearance to 1963, although it may be derived from an older British gay slang term twank , which means: "The quarry of a homosexual prostitute (male); a man willing and ready to become any dominant man's 'partner' " . [3] Oxford Dictionaries claims twink has origins in the 1970s. [4] [5]

Another possible origin of the term may be a derivation from the American snack cake Twinkie , commonly regarded as the quintessential junk food . The food is described as "little nutritional value, sweet to the taste, and creme-filled"; [6] [7] [8] by comparison, the young men are described as "short, and blond, and full of creme". [7] Cream is among the well-known food-related euphemistic terms for semen . [7] [9] The definition of twink has broadened, and qualifiers (such as muscle or femme ) narrow the meaning to a more specific type of twink. [10]

Due to its suspected origins, [3] the term has been accused of relying on " ageist and racist tropes of youth and white desirability" by Susan Driver. [11] In regards to the term, Driver's epistemology finds that it is "a young, white, and performed masculinity that can be fetishized , consumed, ... clearly coded in terms of race and age: White, young", [11] thus establishing the intersection for which race and age come together to create a hyper-sexualized denomination, often associated with sexual acts and the pornographic industry . [11]

Twinks are often clean-shaven to emphasize a youthful, fresh-faced appearance. [12] They are generally in their early 20s and slim, often with a boyish appearance. [13]

Some use the term to refer to those generally effeminate in nature, though this is not universal. [14] The term has been used by " bears " and other gay men, often in a pejorative manner. [12] [15] In some cases, it is a neutral descriptive term, and can be contrasted with bear . [16] The term is often modified by various descriptors, e.g., femme twink , Euro twink , and muscle twink . The term is used in the gay pornography industry. [14] [17]

A backronym has been constructed for twink , according to which it stands for "'teenaged, white , into no kink ", although these specified traits are not universally accepted as either necessary or sufficient to classify an individual as a "twink". [18] [19]

In his book, Never Enough (2007), about a murder committed in 2003 in Hong Kong, described by the New York Times Book Review as hard-boiled clichés with a cartoonish first impression, [20] Joe McGinniss describes a court case in which "twink" was defined as "a gay slang term used to denote an attractive, boyish-looking gay man between the ages of 18 and 23, slender ectomorph and with little or no body hair , often blond, often but not necessarily Caucasian." [21]

Essayist Zeb J. Tortorici notes that gay twink porn thrives on the production and performance of "consumable and visually/anally receptive masculinity." [22] A twink is "memorable for his outer packaging", not his "inner depth". [7] Twink can be seen as a popular subgenre in gay porn widely consumed across the globe. [11]

The term also serves to identify a subculture within gay culture for which members of the community may self-identify, but their stable assurance mostly comes from acceptance by other members. The subculture, as examined now, serves as a purely physical marker for attributes any one person may hold and/or acquire, highly dependent on normative society's take on beauty standards as a whole and what the community puts forth and prescribes to. [23]

The popular dating app for gay men known as Grindr also utilizes the slang, in reference to "tribes" for users to "identify themselves with a niche group and filter their search to help find their type of guy." [24]

Like other "codes", such as the bear code , the twink code is a set of symbols using letters, numerals, and other characters commonly found on modern, Western computer keyboards , and used for the describing and rating of twinks. [25] These codes are used in email , Usenet , and Internet forum postings to identify the physical type and preferences of the poster, but have mostly fallen out of usage. The code includes: physical traits, such as "c" for color of hair (from blond to black); "l" for length of hair (from bald/clean-shaven to very long); "h" for degree of hairlessness; "y" for youthful appearance; and "e" for "endowment" ( penis size ); [25] as well as personality traits, such as "q" for " queeniness "; and sexual preferences, such as "k" for "the kinky factor". [25]
