I do not participate in these deep discussion threads because honestly, some of the language that you all use goes right over my head. It is all a little too deep for me, and I guess I just don't think as deeply or as seriously or as intilectually as you all. Not saying there is anything wrong with that...just not my cup of tea. I am more the class clown than anything.
When I am in the same room and spending time with other butches, I truly just enjoy their company. I have talked everything from sports, tools, home design, and knitting when in the company of butches. (granted, I didn't have much input on the knitting thing...but that is because I can't sit still that long. ) I just love being around likeminded people. People that know we are all different, yet we have some things in common too, whether it is something we have been through or whatever.

I want to apologize if I have ever offended any of you by using the wrong pronoun....reading Medusa's post really made me think about that. I am going to make a conscious effort to be better about that.

As for me; I don't get offended either way. When I am around my friends I have met through the other site, I love that I am acknowledge with masculine pronouns because that is truly how I feel on the inside, and in my head. On an every day basis in my real life...it is always she.

Anyway, carry on....I'll keep reading.

G!!! I never told you but I have wanted to see you post and express your opinion on some of the "deeper" subjects for a very long time. I don't think this stuff is so intellectual. I have always appreciated your humor and community spirit but I also suspect you have opinions that are as valid as anyone elses. Now, can you teach me a little about not being sooo serious?
