Ego-Lesbian Pride Flag
Ego-Lesbian is a term for anyone who is a non-man and is attracted to non-men, someone who feels romantic and sexual attraction towards women and feminine-aligned genders in a complete and comfortable way, but may experience occasional sexual desire for men or boys. However, this sexual attraction to men is usually followed by feelings of discomfort, guilt, repulsion, and disgust, making it difficult or undesirable for this person to maintain any sexual or romantic relationship with men. The identity reflects a clear emotional and sexual preference for women, with the understanding that the attraction to men may be purely physical and cause discomfort when explored.
Definition[]
- Romantic and Sexual Attraction to Women: Natural and comfortable, without any feelings of guilt or repulsion, both on an emotional and sexual level.
- Sexual Desire for Men: May occur occasionally, but is immediately followed by guilt, repulsion, or discomfort. These feelings make any relationship with men unsustainable or undesirable.
- Emotional Difference: There is no romantic interest in men, and the sexual attraction is limited to specific contexts, often unwanted or disconnected from a real relationship.
