I personally don't think butches are a dying breed, now some say we may become extinct... We are just becoming a back burner house hold name because of all the other newer word terms usage that the younger generations are choosing to express their self being as.
I am a proud butch, proud of what the generation before me forged forward to give me freedoms to do, proud for being able to continue their hard grueling torment that society induced on them and us. I had someone ask me the other day, why is it that the word butch for a man more accepted then for a woman. She felt that butch woman should just be known as Dykes. That kind of made me feel sad, to think that the heterosexual community gives the credit to the men more, and are thinking that butch woman should just keep dyke as a prize possession trophy word.
This is why I am even more proud of being a Butch. It is still a cause worth standing for.
I have more to say, but will be back later!
