Question

Can I be a lipstick pansexual?

Community Answer

Yes, you can, but the reason why there's such a concept as a "lipstick lesbian" is because lesbians are usually seen as butch or masculine. Pansexual women do not have such a stereotype.

Question

Can I still call myself a lipstick lesbian if I wear jeans and nice tops?

Community Answer

Yes. You don't have to wear a dress and a fully face of makeup to be a lipstick lesbian. If that's what you identify most with, then that's what you are.

Question

I have a really short haircut. I feel like this makes it harder to be a lipstick lesbian. Any tips?

Community Answer

You can display your femininity with clothes, and short hair has lots of options; try a cute headband.

Question

Can I wear both butch and femme clothes and still be femme?

DAIZHA PHILLIPS

Community Answer

Of course you can. You may feel more masculine one day, and more femme another. Dressing like a guy doesn't change your personality. However, when you dress butch, you may not be perceived as femme.

Question

Are unicorns a bisexual symbol?

Community Answer

No, not really. They´re just mythical creatures. Some people have adopted the unicorn concept as a gay mascot, but this doesn´t mean every unicorn that may appear in entertainment is linked to gay culture.

Question

What are some simple ways I can become a lipstick lesbian?

Nico

Top Answerer

Wear a soft blush, a simple feminine dress, or a cute headband. You don't have to go full lipstick lesbian in a day; start with small feminine manners and gradually work your way up to what you're comfortable with.

Question

Can I still be a butch lesbian if I wear femme clothes?

Nico

Top Answerer

You could, but being a butch lesbian entails having a masculine style and doesn't really mean being feminine.
