I have never been called a dyke, and I would indeed find it rude and offensive if I were so called.

Depends on the situation. I am never called dyke, I get called "sir"'.

I would be offended, because I am very feminine. I can't see insulting anyone by name-calling. I think it's a lot of high school juvenile bullcrap.

I wouldn't be offended if someone called me that, as I'm male. Having said that, I get offended for other people when I hear someone say it.

Yes, because that's generally how it's been meant when I've heard it used.

I call myself one sometimes. But only when someone makes a disparaging comment about gays. I use the shock of calling myself that (or a f*ggot) to illustrate my extreme displeasure at their comment. It's far more useful in person as when punctuated by a hard glare and snappy head **** usually serves to fix their attitude. And if not...Well.
Let's just say there's more than one reason why my boots are so scuffed up.

I think it is rude, disrespectful and ugly ( i am hetero") A dyke is a structure built of earth (i think)+ used to keep back the sea in Holland.

depends on the context if it is another lesbian using that term it is seldom offensive much like afro americans using the n word on each other

Nope. Really don't care. Got asked if I was one in eighth grade. Brushed it off, because I could probably score hotter girls than he could.
