Is there anyway a nonbinary person could be lesbian?

Hi! So I'm nonbinary, and I like girls. But I'm not sure if I can identify as a lesbian since I'm not a girl. Would I still be able to identify as a lesbian or is there a certain word for this?

    People who fancy women are referred to as gynephiles.

    There's no such thing as "a non-binary person." This is sexist anti-feminist bullsh!t and you idiots need to be corrected, not lied to. If you're female and exclusively attracted to women, you're a lesbian. If you like both you're bi.

    Instead of using the term "lesbian", which implies you are female, I would suggest the term "gynephilic", which indicates you are attracted to females, regardless of your gender identity. So you would be a gynephilic non-binary person.

    IF you are biologically female, and you are exclusively attracted to other biological females, you are a lesbian

    Non-binary as I understand refers to gender identity (ie neither feminine nor masculine), not your biological sex, so you're still a lady lovin' lady in my books

    If you are not a woman you can't be a lesbian. As a senior lesbian I Thought I understood different types of sexuality but obviously I don't. Call the gay center and talk to the counselor.
