feel compelled to say
As a femme, I do not consider the word dyke to be exclusively butch. I am also a dyke. The brashness, toughness, in-your-faceness, whateverness of dyke is as much femme as it is butch.
Also want to say that dyke/lesbian are not outdated terms IMO, and do not only have to be associated with the 1970s.
