The Lesbian Masterdoc is a 30-page document (once a Google doc, now a PDF hosted on various websites, passed around on Reddit threads and comment sections) originally written by Tumblr user Anjeli Luz in 2018 when she was still a teenager coming to terms with her own sexuality. She was sent a bunch of resources from followers - including YouTube channels and other TikTok videos - but one resource stood out as being the most recommended and most helpful: the “Lesbian Masterdoc.” In March, she returned to TikTok with a question: “How do I know if I’m bi, lesbian, or pan?” The quarantine period of 2020 inspired her to start dating women exclusively, and by the end of 2021, she had come out on TikTok as a “baby gay” and began to document her queer infancy for her growing audience of followers.

While she enjoyed dating men, she dreaded what felt like an inevitable future of marrying one.

Her coming-out story is worth telling because it’s so ordinary: She always thought women were hot and kissable, but she was too busy dating men to do anything about it. Photo-Illustration: The Cut Photo: Wild BunchĮarlier this year, Jazelle Foster, 32, realized she was a lesbian.
