Question: is “lesbian” here meant as an umbrella term for any sapphic people? I know some people get up in arms about “lesbian” being reserved for strictly homosexual women (in the worst forms this sentiment is also trans-exclusionary, but I assume that’s not the case here), just want to clarify whether the community is meant for bisexual, pansexual, etc. women (and transfem enbies?) as well.
Thanks for clarifying! Also, totally up to you re the name, I personally don’t think it needs to be renamed, but having the sidebar clarify it uses lesbian to just describe any sapphic person might help? Or maybe it’s not necessary to do that at all, I actually don’t need to know this, I just didn’t want to offend anyone by being in the space as a bisexual 😅

“A community for lesbians, people whose loved ones are lesbians, people who want information about lesbians, queer people, and allies!“
Yes! It can be for anyone, maybe I should rename it to “Sapphic”
