What's the point in calling yourself transbian instead of just lesbian?
This is not ment negatively in any way. I just don't really understand the purpose of that term and I am honestly curious why people use it as a self description.
If trans women are women, and women who love women (and not men) are lesbians, why is there a special term for lesbians who are trans women. This is super counterintuitive for my autistic brain.
I can understand that there might be occasions where it make sense to have a special term to show that you are a trans lesbian (and people like to shorten things). But I see transbian quite often as a self description, e.g. in trans inclusive lesbian subs. And that is really confusing for me.
Aren't we all just women?
