Have we reclaimed the word d*ke

Just that really.

Do you see it as ok for lesbian/bi women to use the word dyke, or would you still find it offensive?

I might use it jokingly amongst friends and I don't think that would be viewed as offensive but I can't see me ever having much occasion to do so.
I've been called it several times and, to be honest, even when I knew that the person meant to cause offense it didn't bother me THAT much. I knew that it was offensive but I just didn't feel offended, iyswim. I'd assume I was in a minority with that, though I know my girlfriend feels similarly.

I'd a sight rather 'dyke' than 'queer'.

I hear it used in contexts where it's jokey (eg. 'dykes on bikes' at Pride). I've also heard it used offensively by (presumably) straight men, but personally I don't find it stings because it's not been my experience it's used a lot.

Yes I’d say it was reclaimed years ago.

I don’t mind it, often refer to my partner as ‘baby dyke’ jokingly.

I see dyke as a sub section describing a look which I presume the woman is actively trying to achieve so not offensive in that context, offensive when intented to be

Yup, fully reclaimed and okay for gay women to use but obvs not for straight people to use. Personally I don’t really like it but some women do.

Yeah we use dyke and I don't mind the term at all.
