So me and a close one have been discussing twinks (totally straight and gay) but then we got to the topic of gals and now I’m wondering.

Is there a female equivalent to a twink? What about a bear? Help

      Where I grew up it would be femme and butch. While where I live now it’s more vibes based and fluid.

      But where I grew up you basically had tomboys, which were the twinks. Straight but masculine. Femmes which were gay and girly. Dykes which where gay and in the middle. And butch which where gay and extremely masculine.

      The terminology around where I grew up also hasn’t really changed in 20 years.
