A girlfag (or "female gay man" or "gay-male identified woman") is a person born in a woman's body who feels a strong attraction towards gay or bisexual men. She may partly or wholly feel like a "gay man trapped in a woman's body".[1] Girlfags may be attracted to other types of people as well. Their self-identification as gay, straight or bisexual may vary, although most of them consider themselves to be bisexual.[2]
The male equivalent, a lesbian identified man, is called guydyke. This concept became known when during Season 1 of the American and Canadian co-production television drama series The L-Word a lesbian-identified man called "Lisa" had a short relationship with a lesbian woman.Vorlage:Dubious
Some - but not all - girlfags and guydykes identify as genderqueer[3] or androgyne.
The term fag hag describes a totally different phenomenon, where straight women seek out "safe", non-sexual relationships with gay men. A girlfag on the other hand is specifically interested in pursuing romantic/sexual relationships with gay or bisexual men.
The concept of and the discussion about girlfags and guydykes came up in the USA during the 1990s.Vorlage:Fact So far the topic wasn't discussed often within the gender studies. During the last few years it became more popular in german-speaking countries.
