sbb stands for "stone butch blues" (inspired by the book with that title), which refers to a type of gender dysphoria that butch/stud/masculine lesbians experience. the term's intention is to create distinction between the type of gender dysphoria that transexual (medically transitioning) people experience and that which those who don't desire to take hormones, or only temporarily or have detransitioned experience. someone with sbb dysphoria might feel insecurity regarding their sex/gender which is tied to the fact that they're female-homosexual and the gender-non-conformity that comes with it even though they accept and see themselves as lesbians. someone with sbb dysphoria might use alternative pronouns to refer to themselves but not necessarily, same with identifying or not as transgender or transbutch.
