"Butch" and "Femme" - Truly Antiquated Terms or More Marginalization?

Darth Denkay · 11-22-2009, 05:58 PM

Butch and Femme aren't going anywhere. They started around the 1940s, and although they had to shift out of sight during the feminist movement, they certainly didn't go away. We've got young members on this site and the other who embrace butch and femme. As time goes on we are developing more gender descriptors, so maybe less folks are ascribing to butch or femme, but they certainly aren't going away. Mark my words...
