I guess I didn't say this, but the thing is that a lot of the people at my school who ask for my pronouns or think I'm nonbinary don't know that I am a lesbian. I'm not in the closet and it isn't a secret, but I also am just not a super public person and have never been in a relationship. I just wear men's clothes and look more "butch" even though I have long hair, so I think that instead of assuming that I am just a more masculine lesbian or even a "tomboy", they just jump to trans or nonbinary since it is what they are more familiar with. I'm not sure if it is homophobia on their parts or just ignorance.

Just tell them that you’re a lesbian.

They don't deserve to know that about her. They'll treat her poorly regardless because she doesn't fit the straight mould.
