Hasbian

Hasbian is informal slang for a woman who once identified as a lesbian but now dates men or identifies differently.

Hasbian is informal, tongue-in-cheek slang for a woman who used to identify as a lesbian but now dates men or otherwise no longer identifies as gay. The word is a blend of has-been and lesbian. It can be used playfully among friends or with a critical edge, and some dictionaries note it as derogatory. The term raises real questions about how sexual identity can shift over time and whether labels are meant to be permanent. Many people prefer to describe their own experience in terms like bisexual, fluid, or queer rather than accept a label placed on them by others.
