'''Dyke''', also known as '''Dike''' or '''Bulldyke''', is a reclaimed slur for [[Lesbian|lesbians]], particularly those who are [[masculine]] presenting women/[[butch]] lesbians. The word is commonly considered a derogatory slur, but has been reclaimed and used positively by some lesbians
Besides it's reclaimed use, it should not be used on any individual, especially those who have not reclaimed this term. No individual should use the slur unless they themselves have the right to reclaim it. The term should only be reclaimed by sapphics.
