diesel dyke
This is an alternative term people used for "dyke" but specifically against butch lesbians. Diesel dyke is a slang term which typically refers to a large, masculine lesbian who enjoys working with cars and motorcycles. This was used in multiple ways against them, such as them saying a diesel dyke is a lesbian who makes a "considerable effort to look as unattractive to men as possible. Often wears dungarees. Very much at home under the bonnet with a spanner.", rather than actually being themselves which is not true, they just wanted to include men in lesbianism.
