Is there a difference?

It depends on what you mean. Gay and straight women are still women. There are certain things that men and women do differently due to our psychology. You will often hear lesbians say to not regard them as men because they arent men, even if they are attracted to women.

However there is such a thing as masculine and feminine energy, or sexual polarity. Masculine energy is often found in men, while feminine energy is often found in women. However this isn't always a fixed idea. Men can be feminine and women can be masculine.

That concept also goes beyond what we stereotypically few as masculine and feminine energy as well. A very masculine man can be in his feminine for short periods of time, while a woman can be in her masculine for short periods of time. That doesn't mean that the man is feminine or that the woman is masculine overall.

For example, a high powered executive who happens to be a woman may often be in her masculine while at work because she is in a male dominated environment. Therefore she has to be more masculine than a feminine woman would be around her male colleagues. However when she returns home she may switch into her feminine with her husband who is a masculine man. Likewise it's also possible that she would return home in her masculine to a husband who is in more feminine.

So masculine and feminine energy isn't always a fixed energy, but they do attract one another. This is true in gay/lesbian relationships. Even when you have two women, there still exists sexual polarity where a partner is in their masculine and another is in their feminine. However depending on the partners, this could fluctuate between them too.

From what my lesbian friends have told me, there is a gradient in lesbian relationships. Imagine a scale numbered 1 through 9, where 1 is very masculine and 9 is very feminine. The relationships with perfect chemistry/sexual polarity generally exists between the partners who offset each other best, who if placed on the scale total to 10. So a woman who is a 3 on the scale may be more attracted to a woman who is a 7. This of course isn't a hard set rule and there are plenty of exceptions/caveats.

So it really depends on the person.

Got it, so what's your question exactly? I'd also point out Leo man and women do have very similar traits. Not in a androgynous way, but we do understand one another in a variety of ways due to our similarities.

I can't count how many times I've been hit on by women (not to say I don't attract more men) . I'm quite happily straight. Who knows, I think I might show masculine traits. It hasn't ever really come up in conversation but that's kind of how I perceive myself. Could also be that cap moon and the fact that I'm an INTJ. Lots of male-type energy shows through. I'd like to think I'm pretty feminine in a lot of ways as well.

wow really? you must give off lesbian rays. (like the gaydar stuff) lesbian-dar.

true story:

when we were in Las Vegas, they gave away those hot stuff sexy acts, it looks like porn flyers or pamphlets and i notice they gave them only to the men passing by and ignored the women..

we were with a group of people too, passing along the string to go to the next hotel casino,

and in the group, one was my mother in law... they ignored the women except her, and gave the other flyers to the old men and young in our group, my husband waved it away and said no.

needless to say my mother in law was sooo offended!!!

she is not lesbian but she dresses like a tomboy, never wears make up or does her hair, kind of manly. always in pants and jeans and tshirts and big jacket shirts. comfy tennis shoes. she's not glamorous at all cause she cares more about the "mind".

(only other one that looks like her, is her double libra sister in law with scorpio mars. you'd think libra is feminine but she's strongly butch in that sense, very powerful)

https://everydayfeminism.com/2014/09/butch-looks-like/



these types, but not ugly at all. just very strongly masculine looking yet female.

i wonder if that's a controversal for people?

Yeah, I'm not butch in my physical presentation (long hair, makeup), so I wouldn't describe my appearance as butch. But I think my vibe is. Libra/Scorpio/Virgo dominant.
