Hello everyone.
As the thread title suggests, I consider myself a dyke... and the labels androgyne or boi tend to fit (but I don't identify as either... pretty much just a regular lesbian... even if I'm intersexed)
...I've been working on the first part of this (preceding the wikipedia definition) for quite a while...
I'm not (100%) female identified, but deffinately (outwardly) female bodied, and present as such. Being more female identified than male, I DO NOT prefer male pronouns. -- simplified explaination --
[[[ Boi ]]] (from handy dandy wikipedia)
[[ 1 ]] A younger person who looks and acts like a young, heterosexual male, possibly embodying stereotyped attributes towards casual sex and commitment in relationships, in contrast with the stereotype of the U-Haul lesbian.
Bois may not identify as butch, regarding butches as playing a more powerful or responsible role – the "man of the house" – while a boi is still in a freer, younger phase.
[[ 2 ]] Boi may also refer to a female-born or female-bodied person—sometimes transsexual, transgendered, or intersexed, sometimes not—that generally does not identify as, or only partially identifies as feminine, female, a girl, or a woman.
Some "bois" identify as one or more of these, but they almost always identify as lesbians, dykes, or queers.
