Feeling out of place among femme sisters
OMG i have enjoyed reading in this thread.
i love hearing stories from others. i don't feel so alone in my journey.
i knew i was a femme from very young, chasing the tomboys around. Only i was one too, just not as much. i was never into dolls. i rather pretend to be a pilot or a teacher.
i am not a girly girl at all. i can be, for short spurts. Once when i a butch was chatting me up, asked me if i have *nails*... because it was a requirement. Pfft.
it was very very hard to find my way, as the other queer women i knew didn't dress or act like me. i didn't know what i was. i loved masculine energy, and tied it to male. i tried to fix my gay way too many times. i am so glad i found out about butch women. Masculine energy with a female brain. 
i am very mechanically inclined and am bold. i fixed my own garbage disposal the other day. i know tools and lawn equipment. i don't wear make up much and i don't have a clue as to how to really.
When my femme sisters are talking about beauty secrets and the best purses to have, i feel so out of place.
However if they ever want to know how to run a chainsaw, i'm their girl.
