A '''they/them lesbian '''or '''theysbian '''refers to a [[lesbian]] who uses they/them [[pronouns]], which can be exclusive or part of a [[Multipronominal|multipronoun]] set. It is a more specific form of [[Pronoun Non-Conforming|pronoun non-conformity]] and [[Crosspronominal|crosspronoun]] usage, and is said to be a common lesbian experience to feel disconnected from womanhood, often due to womanhood commonly being defined by relationships with men. |

Similar to how lesbians might go by masculine/androgynous names, present as [[butch]], or otherwise [[Gender Non-Conforming|gender non-conforming]], a lesbian may refer to themself with they/them to express this disconnect from their gender. |

A they/them lesbian or theysbian refers to a lesbian who uses they/them pronouns, which can be exclusive or part of a multipronoun set. It is a more specific form of pronoun non-conformity and crosspronoun usage, and is said to be a common lesbian experience to feel disconnected from womanhood, often due to womanhood commonly being defined by relationships with men.
Similar to how lesbians might go by masculine/androgynous names, present as butch, or otherwise gender non-conforming, a lesbian may refer to themself with they/them to express this disconnect from their gender.
Neopronoun gays, neopronoun lesbians, he/him lesbians, she/her gays, it/its lesbians, it/its gay people and they/them gay identities exist through the same principle.

The second alternate flag was designed by DeviantArt user flower-lesbienne.
