If lesbians referred to exclusively homosexual women could someone explain to me why "gold star lesbian" was a thing?https://twitter.com/eattheextant/status/1276609737786822657 …

Kinda seems like you wouldn't need two extra words to denote lesbians who had never dated or slept with a man if lesbian alone already meant that- sorry!

I always thought one was, like, about sexual preference and the other was about experience. Like someone might identify as a Lesbian as in they're only attracted to women but still had been with guys in the past but Gold-Star meant never having been with a guy.

I don't think so? Non-gold-star lesbians were women who were either already in or seeking a lifelong relationship with a woman, and if single exclusively dated women. Having once felt attracted to a man or men they'd had sex with at the time was fine.
