Longsword Lesbian

A Longsword Lesbian (LSL) is an exclusionary lesbian fighting against lesbian erasure. It is an autonym for those who believe the label of "lesbian" has been eroded or diminished by non-binary, pronoun non-conforming, and multisexual-spectrum lesbians.

Longsword lesbians may also use the terms vixenamoric and sapphomoric to distinguish themselves from those they exclude from lesbianism.

The vincian counterpart is Gravity Knife Gay.

Etymology
The term is based on "sword lesbian", a humorous label not rooted in exclusion for lesbians whose weapon of choice is a sword. A longsword is used specifically for the alliteration. The weapon takes on additional meaning with this identity, signifying intent to defend the label from anyone who isn't a binary woman using she/her pronouns exclusively attracted to women.

Flag
A tweet by Twitter user missyxthirteen indicates that the primary flag was created by now-deactivated Instagram user flop._.shop on or before June 27, 2020. The tweet also provided the significance of the flag's seven stripes. From top to bottom, the colors represent being against he/him, they/them, and neopronoun lesbians; the purity of lesbianism; exclusive attraction to women; the safety felt around others with she/her pronouns; and the label only being applicable to binary women.
