To give her the benefit of the doubt, maybe she's talking about being detached from the stereotypical idea of womanhood (ie heterosexual, feminine, etc). But idk its hard to tell what she really means.

Yeah, I felt a lot like this before and after I realized I was attracted to girls growing up. So much of "being a girl/woman" is directly tied to pleasing or placating men and acting out feminine gender roles. People act like lesbians are defective women because we're not attracted to men. Or worse, they think we actually want to be men because we don't fit their stereotypical idea of what a woman should act like, look like, or do. That definitely led me to internalize a lot of misogyny and lesbophobia when I was younger. It's what sucks a lot of young lesbians into the TQ black hole and you can tell it's getting worse just looking at the number of detransitioned lesbians coming out in waves.

That said... I went to her profile and she uploaded this and this. So she's just yet another bisexual woman calling herself a lesbian/gay.

Yeah, I totally agree. Not to mention its hard to relate to straight/bi women sometimes, which makes me feel distanced from the majority of women. So I can sympathize with why some lesbians feel that way.

Also, can't say I'm surprised she's actually bi...

How does she say she’s coming out as bisexual... yet in her profile it’s “I’m gay”... and in so many of her songs it’s about being lesbian?
