asexual

a person who is not interested in or does not desire sexual activity, either within or outside of a relationship. asexuality is not the same as celibacy, which is the willful decision to not act on sexual feelings. asexuals, while not physically sexual-type folks, are none the less quite capable of loving, affectionate, romantic ties to others.

while many women involved in so-called "boston marriages" had asexual relationships, their partnerships have none-the-less been claimed by some as part of lesbian history.

stereo-dyke

a lesbian who's interests, appearence and personality are generally congruent with every lesbian cliche/joke ever heard, positive or otherwise. tends to set off everyone and their grandmother's gaydar within a two mile radius. used as an insult.

man, shelly's such a stereo-dyke... she's had the same crew-cut for fifteen years, practically lives in those birkenstocks, coaches the women's softball team, and won't listen to anything that's not ani or the indigo girls.
