Butches Saying Hello To Other Butches......

Steele · 07-17-2017, 02:46 PM

I decided recently that I am indeed a woman, it's just my butchness kinda messes with my self perception.

Idk I'm trying to get familiarized with the lesbian community

Welcome to the "woman-identified butch" club. We have a secret handshake and everything.

Self awareness is a good thing. Good luck on your journey and feel free to reach out to other butches.

is it friday YET?

Until recently... last couple of years... I didn't know that was an issue ... or in question. Meaning, that one could be a Butch and prefer/accept feminine pronouns and/or also ID as woman/female. I'm assuming... that's what you mean(?)

Well, we like to separate, then come back together. There are male identified butches (cool) and female identified butches (cool) and transmit (cool) and I'm sure there are others, but we are all masculine of center and support each other....right?

My comment wasn't intended to exclude, it was intended to include. I, as a WIB, didn't feel that I fit in the other groups so it is nice to see other people say hey, I'm butch and I'm a woman. I didn't feel I was butch "enough." Now, I'm more comfy in my identity and I am pleased to welcome anyone who is walking a similar path. I'm also pleased to welcome someone walking a different path. I just like to welcome....what can I say?

Welcoming is a good thing!
