Lala (Chinese slang)

Lala is a non-derogatory Chinese slang term for lesbian, or a same-sex desiring woman. It is used primarily by the LGBT+ community in mainland China. Beginning in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, lala communities started to form in urban areas of China, such as Beijing and Shanghai, using bars and online chatrooms to connect.

Origins
The term lazi first entered the mainland Chinese lexicon through Taiwanese writer Qiu Miaojin's novel Notes of a Crocodile (1994), which features a central character named Lazi. Chinese individuals identifying as lesbian have since favoured the term lala to describe their sexual orientation. == References ==
