Still thinking about Worldcon's "Sword Lesbians" panel. Who are the sword lesbians of SFF, actually? Do we have an agreed-upon set beyond Muir's Gideon and @clclark.bsky.social's Touraine? I can think of several possible cases but have seldom seen others unambiguously referred to.

Isn't one heavily hinted at in the Swordspoint novels (the queen), or am I misremembering?

Even the Worldcon panel did not, I think, really agree on a set? I feel "sword lesbian" might be a... vibe or sentiment? As much as anything? Thoughts?

I feel like I’ve seen Csorwe from The Unspoken Name discussed in this category a bunch
