"im not a boy, im nonbinary
but at the same time, i feel very aligned with masculinity, so i often call myself a boy and similar terms
i prefer he/they pronouns, and masculine terms but i am still not entirely a boy
in terms of ‘men and non men’ id be somewhere in between"
Ry (He/Fire)
"I was raised to feel ashamed of my attraction to women and my lesbianism. As I got older and started figuring myself out more, I realized I could be a boy, I could be a trans man.
For so many this means abandoning their lesbian identity, but for me it meant embracing it! I may not be a girl anymore, but I still feel a connection to lesbianism and womanhood. I'm a lesbian and a trans man, not in spite of my manhood, but because of it!"
Bumble (Mew/Xe/It)
"so, im a transmasc gendersatyr demiboy lesbigay, so. my attraction to femme-alligned people feels queer. it doesnt feel like a typical mlw type thing, its like.. it feels nblw to me? and being nd and trans just makes me experience stuff generally queer-ly"

Yan (He/They/Lua)
"My relation to gender has always been rather complex, and so has my relation been to sexuality as well. As a genderfluid (gustgender, vernalgender, flowgender, lovegender, catgender, boygender, nonbinary) demiboy, I have had to find ways to define my sexuality in a way that fits my experiences with gender best; and with "bi gay lesboy", I can both express the lesbian part of my queer attraction and its inseparable connection to boyhood. And further, as a boygender boy, I reject manhood; so while I am a lesboy, I don't consider myself a lesbian man."
Apricity (He)
"I'm a trans man, and when I first realized I was trans I had already been identifying as a lesbian for several years. I was also in a lesbian relationship at the time. when I realized this I talked to my partner about it, we both agreed that even though I am a man we wanted to stay together. I was still very connected to my lesbian identity as well and after how hard I had fought for it when I was a woman I did not want to give it up, so I kept it. no part of my sexuality really changed, only my gender. I had always been a lesbian, I was just a lesbian and a man."
Korin (He/She)
"Hi! I am korin, I’m a lesboy!! I have always found my self, despite knowing that I am a lesbian, i have always struggled with my gender identity. I found myself identifying more with men relationships, but not exactly relating to them. For example, I’d see a MLM relationship and identify with the feelings they did and the relationship dynamic in a way that was queer and in a women sense, and identifying more with the boy and men label. Lesboy is just perfect for me."
Fei (They/He/It/Xe)
"Hai! I’m a lesboy and I thought I’d share my experience :) buckle up cause this is a roller costar! Ever since i 9 or 10 i had been questioning my gender and sexuality, while i had been good with sticking with one sexuality label or a bit i had always been changing up my gender label. From cis woman to trans man to nonbinary to demigirl to back to enby again to now agenderfluid its been a ride. It was easy to come to terms with liking women but it took me a long time to come to terms with the fact that I didn’t like men. And it took me an even longer time to figure out my pronouns! But now I’m comfortable with masculine terms and being transmasc while also embracing my lesbianism <3"

"So, my relationship with gender is complicated, but I've ended up at "politically a woman, but my gender is a mix of female-dyke and demiboy", and my orientation is almost entirely towards (genderqueer) women, but I can technically love anyone.
I used to be very involved in exclusionist Lesbian communities, and I feared exploring my gender or my feelings towards men & non-binary folk out of fear that it would exclude me from the only label I ever felt explained by (lesbian). Realising I'm capable of loving men initially alienated me from Lesbianism, but that gave me room to realise that my gender has elements of masculinity within it too! After studying queer history some more, I came to understand that Lesbian is as diverse an identity as any other, so I re-explored my place within Lesbianism. Bi-Lesboy is what ended up fitting.
To me, being a Lesboy is a recognition of the way my gender, gender presentation, and orientation assign with eachother. I am a woman and a female, but I embody maleness too. I present as a butch-woman, I am perceived by the world as a woman, and I am okay interacting with the world as such.So, when I date women (who I am almost-exclusively oriented towards), that experience is ultimately a Lesbian experience. Calling myself a Lesboy is an acknowledgement of my fundamentally queer relationship to women, and the way lesbianism and maleness relate to my inner-experience of gender - it encompases every aspect of my identity into a lovely little package, and I love having a label that can do that for me"

"to start off, i identify as pangender, my gender encompasses through all known and unknown genders within my daily life and culture, so i feel like sometimes I'm a women/fem aligned, others I'm feeling non binary/neutral aligned and other times, like a men/masc aligned, it was hard to find the correct label to express my experience with gender but here it is, Pangender. Also recently I've found out I'm a Lesbian, I've always knew i felt attracted to women for a long time, that's the label for me, no other label can describe my love for women, so i identified as a lesbian for some time, however there was a "but", my gender felt masculine too, only identifying with the Lesbian label just made me quite uncomfortable, the "straight" label too, none of these made me feel "happy", so when i educated myself about the label "Lesboy", everything made sense!! That's who i am now, a Pangender lesbian, who also identifies as a lesboy ."
Azure (They/He/Hy)
"I’ve always had a complicated relationship with both sexuality and gender. In layman’s terms, I’m queer and genderfluid (as well as intersex). In specifics, I’m bi/pan (attracted to people regardless of gender), aego-aroaceflux (my attraction fluctuates, but I always prefer thinking/talking about sex and romance rather than pursuing it), androgyne (aligning with both femininity and masculinity, but not in equal amounts), intergender (being in-between a woman and a man), and transmasc (feeling more gender euphoria from identifying as masc). I’ve felt directly and indirectly alienated for all of these identities since starting my coming out journey in 2014.
When I came across the term “lesboy,” something in me clicked. My genderfluidity consists of nonbinary femininity on one end of the spectrum, transmasculinity on the other, androgyne/intergender on the leaning sides, and agender/neutrois square in the middle. Because of that, I identify with being both WLW and MLM; my attraction to women is just as beautifully queer as is my attraction to men. It also helps that I’m a system, and saying this about myself helps my alters feel validated about their identities rather than dysphoric.
The term “lesboy” is also a reclamation in the same way “queer” is, both for my sexuality and gender. Despite leaning more transmasc, I can’t completely divorce myself from womanhood, especially since I still experience misogynistic violence and misgendering/deadnaming. While not something I’ve experienced yet, a common transmasc experience is being asked, “Why can’t you just be a lesbian?” However, I’m not bothered by being called a lesbian because I’ve legit questioned being one before. It’s like I’m reclaiming a hurtful thing that could be said to me before it can even be said. I’m a fag, a dyke, a tranny, and a queer wrapped in one, and that’s perfectly OK with me.
In short, being a lesboy means being everything BUT straight and cis."
