I do not 'feel girly', never have and I do not own a dress and have not owned one since the day I graduated from high school. Yes I was in the Army. When I was on active duty the uniforms for women did NOT include pants/trousers/slacks of any kind. It was about 2 years into my enlistment before they came out with uniforms that included pants/slacks/trousers. I never really considered the uniform skirts to be dresses....it was a uniform.....laughin......it did help that ALL of us had to wear the skirt....I had plenty of butch friends who, like me, looked like a bad drag queen in a skirt/dress.

She has not been around woman/female identified butches, only male identified. She has been around Femme's, and she has been around andro-lesbians.
Part of the problem is that she wears a size 13 shoe, is 6' tall, has hands as big as small plates and is considerably overweight. She thinks all of her issues would be resolved if she were male.
As Sachita said in her responce, I think I am going to have to find a way to get her to see a therapist again. This was not the issue at the time, but she already tried to kill herself once and I take no chances where she is concerned.
Thank you for your thoughts.
