Cottagecore, also known as farmcore and countrycore, is inspired by a romanticized interpretation of western agricultural life. It is centered on ideas of simple living and harmony with nature. Themes associated with cottagecore include self-sufficiency, baking, and caring for people. While the aesthetic is prevalent on several social media sites, such as on Instagram and more recently TikTok, the community notably prospers on Tumblr. It is particularly popular within lesbian and woman-loving-woman (WLW), and nonbinary loving women (NBLW) communities.
"In the cottagecore universe, there are no phones pinging constantly with updates, no urgent work emails, no evenings spent responding to the onerous demands of a tyrannical boss. In fact, there is no labor beyond domestic, and workaday tasks are completed with a gauzy sense of fulfillment." -via The New York Times

An "aesthetic" depicting/revolving around a romanticized life in nature. Very serene and calming vibes. Includes: flowers, frogs, flowy dresses, cottages, fairies, and more things of that ilk.
"This tea set is so cottagecore!"
"It would be very cottagecore if we got matching frog earrings."
"All I want is a simple cottagecore life in the woods."

An Aesthetic. I just wanna live in a cottage with my wife and we can have a garden of flowers and toadstools and make pie with the berries we picked wearing our aprons and dresses.

a cottagecore lesbian is a girl who runs off to the countryside/farm to live in a cottage with her lesbian wife. it's based off of the cottagecore aesthetic, and lesbians really liked that aesthetic and decided to make it a lifestyle. cottagecore lesbians usually enjoy baking, the outdoors, animals, and small, cozy cottages. after all, that's where they live.
person: "why is she wearing a mushroom hat?"
cultured person: "that's because she's a cottagecore lesbian and she's matching with her girlfriend."
