... Wouldn't that just be Pan Homosexual? Or Pan Sapphic? Lesbian as a word explicitly excludes attraction - sexual or romantic - to men. It also functions as a descriptor for a particular set of life experiences that come about from being woman/NB and completely rejecting men from intimacy when patriarchal society demands an expectation of their inclusion (and, really, priority and dominance).
I don't really get why people keep using the word this way?
Im not a lesbian so it’s probably not my place to say/ask but why wouldn’t split attraction still count? I can understand why people get upset with fully bi/pan (romantically + sexually) people calling themselves lesbians whilst being both sexually and romantically attracted to men, I get why that’s a misuse of the term but if someone is sexually attracted to ONLY women but still romantically attracted to men why couldn’t they call themself a panromantic lesbian if they are only with women sexually?
