Not at all; thank you for mentioning that. Sometimes it's hard to know whether someone is building on previous thoughts or disagreeing, so I always appreciate when someone tells me which it is!
You said: "and I wanted to mention that for me as a woman, my butchness is part and parcel of my womanness.
"It is not separate from that of which it is part, nor is it in opposition to itself."
Gryph has never mentioned anything like this to me, so I don't know if he would share this viewpoint with you or not; he very well might. And yes, he does identify as a Two Spirit, although I have known others who said they were "both female and male" who simply identified as Butches.
