Manifestly non-notable former neologism; now an extinct vogue word. This is getting ridiculous; please salt. Mathglot (talk) 20:59, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Terms such as “femme,” “lipstick lesbian,” “chapstick lesbian,” and “butch” refer to variations in physical expression of gender among queer women. Among queer men, terms such as “butch,” “bear,” “otter,” “swish,” and “twink” differentiate between gay men of different physical appearance.
each term listed currently has its own Wikipedia article (except for "otter", which is a redirect).
Furthermore, deletion (especially if the article is salted and no redirect is allowed) would only further systemic bias. We allow an endless amount of articles on subcategories of homosexual males (Bear (gay culture), Castro clone, Chicken (gay slang), Chickenhawk (gay slang), Chub (gay slang), Daddy (slang), Queen (slang), Swish (slang), Troll (gay slang), Twink (gay slang)), but somehow a commonly used subcategory of homosexual females is dismissed as a "cutesy expression" and not worthy of even a redirect? --Surachit (talk) 20:52, 25 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
