Lulz, I used to think I was a stealth dyke but apparently I'm not. Oh well!
Stealth Dyke can also be similiar to Lipstick Lesbian. I.E. shows all of the female characteristics/feminine traits of a straight female. Which means to dress/act like a straight female or at least that's what I have been told. I swear it's true because I have dear friend that would be a perfect example. I know she made my jaw drop when she told me she was a lesbian and I am a gay man and couldn't tell.
Well, there you have it!
credit for all my non-conformist stealth dyke sisters.
from the country girls that people think are straight, to the goth girls everyone assumes are just socially bi... yay for being invisible in plain sight =P
hey! I've been looking for a term to describe me forever, now I have it :)
