I'm guessing the former poster is someone who went past freestyling into drag into transsexualism and now calls themselves a "lesbian" because they are still with women.

As for "male lesbian," I think of Eddie Izzard when I hear that phrase. While he wears things considered "feminine" albeit it in a very butch way, I don't see how that makes him a lesbian of any stripe.

This topic brings me to something of my past. When I was in my early teens and going to school in New York (I was a dancer/singer/actor), I started to hang around women's bars. I would dance with the baby dykes by the jukebox. I became known as a "dyke daddy." In fact, I was given the title by a woman I knew then. Because of my family connections and my studies, I knew a lot of homosexual woman, especially in theatre/music. They influenced my likes in women as well. As a certain woman said to me when I asked her what kind of women she likes, "I like aggressive femmes and cute butches." My DD dream is Portia DeRossi, aggressive label femme and all around babe.

I admit, I envy women's freedom in certain areas such as clothing, that does not translate into a desire to be a woman. My personal style is very, very dykey. Tight jeans and stiletto boots, that is dyke style. Of couse that's not the only type of woman that wears that sort of thing, but that was dyke style.

Nowadays, the term "dyke daddy" is used by extreme butches shading into wanting to be men.
