I am totally a girl. Mr. Jenny can also be heard to refer to herself as a girl. I am femme, she is butch, we are both over 40, we are in Southest Texas.
If she would have have started out with "The girls I love are the kind I call 'butch girls'" instead of "i love butch girls" i think every objection Kobi has here would be nullified. The only problem is that she is not all the way in her "me" space
i do kind of love the "live every moment looking like they weren't supposed to" line

Tristan Taormino (born May 9, 1971) is a feminist author, columnist, sex educator, activist, editor, speaker, and pornographic film director (she also appeared in three films, two of which she directed, 1999–2000).
She teaches sex and relationship workshops around the world and lectures at top colleges and universities including Princeton, Yale, Brown, Columbia, Cornell, University of Toronto, Wesleyan, Vassar, University of Oregon, Swarthmore, and New York University, where she speaks on gay and lesbian issues, sexuality and gender, and feminism.
Taormino stated in an online interview, "I identify strongly as queer and as a dyke, because, as I have said before, it's not just about who I fuck and love, being queer is also about my politics, my culture, my community, and the way I see the world. People want to call me bisexual or pansexual or whatever, but I believe in people's power to self-identity."
In addition, "she describes herself as 'equal opportunity.' She doesn't like the word 'bisexual' -- it's too polarizing."
