John Hopkins University refers to lesbians as ‘non-men attracted to non-men’ in new LGBTQ glossary

John Hopkins University was slammed by critics including “Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling for switching up its definition of “lesbian” to instead refer to the group as “non-man attracted to non-men” in order to include non-binary people.

The prestigious research university had updated its LGBTQ Glossary in its inclusive language guide to state that “while past definitions refer to ‘lesbian’ as a woman who is emotionally, romantically, and/or sexually attracted to other women, this updated definition includes non-binary people who may also identify with the label.”

Rowling, who stoked controversy for her views on transgender people, took issue with the new definition by John Hopkins for removing the word “woman.”

“Man: no definition needed. Non-man (formerly known as woman): a being definable only by reference to the male. An absence, a vacuum where there’s no man-ness,” she tweeted Tuesday.

Rowling was joined by others on social media who believed the term from by the top research university effectively dubbed women “non-men.”
