The Re-Definition of the Modern Butch - Page 2

Going to come in everyday to read posts. I feel this thread can be of great value and not age specific at all. For me, there have been so many varied mixes of butch within. A multi-dimensional core of sorts that goes far beyond so much of traditional definitions of butch and for me, female masculinity.

Sometimes, I am deeply frustrated with what I too, see as limiting, narrow and constraining with butch identity. I have met (or am friends with) several butches (ranging from female-identified through TG and IG, Trans-masuline and those that left butch and our dynamic behind as FtM's) that just can't remain on B-F sites for the reasons Metro brings up. Yet, I cannot stay away even when I also feel limitations and constraints. Odd, actually, as personally, I am pretty much just a butch. Ah, so what does that really mean?

Anyway, I want to simply read what others think and feel for now in the thread.
