not american

a woman whose emotional, romantic, and sexual energies are geared towards other women.

A lesbian is a female who is exclusively emotionally, sexually, romantically and/or aesthetically attracted to other female.

Sexual activity between women is as diverse as sex between heterosexuals or gay men. Some women in same sex relationships do not identify as lesbian, but as bisexual. As with any interpersonal activity, sexual expression depends on the context of the relationship. Like anyone else (regardless of sexuality), lesbians can be promiscuous or committed, ashamed or proud. There is a wide spectrum of lesbian behavior and generalizations can be misleading. Recent cultural changes in western and a few other societies have enabled lesbians to express their sexuality more freely, which has resulted in new studies on the nature of female sexuality.

Throughout history, hundreds of lesbians have been well-known figures in the arts and culture.

A woman with enough good taste not to be interested in guys.

A woman who loves or is sexually attracted to women. I read through other descriptions of lesbian and some people who made definitions on this word are just plain retarded.

1. There is NO good or bad type of lesbian. It doesnt matter if they are ugly or pretty. They are people. Just like you get ugly and pretty straight people. You don't group them into 'good and bad groups' do you? =/.

2. Lesbians aren't all man haters. Yes a few are. But then again some (i'm not saying all) straight men are sexist towards women and treat them as objects. So you can't say that lesbians are all sexist when plenty of straight people are.

3. Those skanks you see on internet porn are not lesbians. They are whores that are trying to get guys to fuck them. If they are real lesbians then they AREN'T going to let you fuck them. Look up 'bi-sexual' asshole.

4. YOU AREN'T GOING TO TURN A LESBIAN STRAIGHT BY HAVING SEX WITH THEM. OMG. That's just plain stupid. Some guys that have their heads up their asses seem to think that lesbians are women you havn't ever had sex with a man before. Or that being homosexual is just a mental illness or something that can only be cured with sex with a guy. =/. If she's a lesbian then she's not going to appreciate you trying to fuck her. You'll probably just get slapped.

A woman that is atracted emotionaly, and sexually to other women. The concept is the same no matter who you are atracted to. Romance, atration, sexual desire, the only difference is it is between two women.

a female who feels she has strong feelings for other women sexually or romantically. There is no set "look" for a lesbian because they come in all shape and forms. Lesbians are of any "posse" any religions, any denomination because (yes) they are normal people. Just because a girl is dating another girl doesnt mean she is lesbian. She could be bisexual or even bi-curious so dont assume things because that makes us really mad. I suggest you not call a lesbian a "dyke" because we dont like that very much either. And (no) not all of us are whores who wish to please other men. We just go with what our hearts say.

A female, like myself, who finds other females attractive and sexually stimulating. It doesnt alwayz have to be about the sex though. Being a lesbian, one can find love in another females eyes and not think nothing of it. I'm engaged to a female which makes me a lesbian, but I hate when people stereotype us. Both of us are females...that means neither of us try to act or look like fuckin men. what would be the point in lookin and acting like a guy if we are lesbians??
