| has gloss | hun: A dyke egy angolból átkerült szleng szó, amit eredetileg a határozott karakterű leszbikusokra, a butch-okra alkalmaztak becsmérlő felhanggal. Ez a használat mind a mai napig létezik, de időközben szert tett egy pozitív töltésre is, ami a viselője magabiztosságára és keménységére utal, vagy egyszerűen semleges szinonímája a leszbikus szónak. |
