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

i asked my ever-insightful partner if he feels as though there are touches that are *feminizing* and if so what they might be. he couldn't really come up with one, so i offered, 'what if i said i was going to 'finger bang' you?' which got an eyeroll and a, 'you know i don't like that' so i asked, 'why? is it feminizing?' and he said, 'no, i'm just not into it' so, i continued, 'what if i went over and did a 'motorboat' on your chest-area?' and he laughed, 'i'd laugh' i persisted, 'would you get mad? would you think it was feminizing?' he explained, 'if you did that i know you'd be joking' (i wouldn't do that, btw) again i asked, 'is it feminizing?' and he's patient so he said, 'no, not feminizing, we just have been together long enough for me to know what you like and for you to know what i like...' so, of course i persisted, 'what if i said i wanted to suck your hot wet pussy?' again, he didn't find *any* of my examples as much 'feminizing' as absurd. i think i'm concluding that i can't 'feminize' what isn't feminine and attempting to wouldn't be what either of us is about. (additionally, i did try to discover WHY it is that he doesn't like a certain, 'sensation' (ones that i do) but was without success beyond, 'i just don't')

Part 2

also, i don't believe in stone femme (unless you define stone femme as someone with boundaries regarding touch, of their personal person.) otherwise 'stone femme' just means that someone isn't attracted to who their sleeping with--which is cool, i don't judge--but lets get on the same page, already.

Part 3

i'm reading, 'nickel and dimed' and i'm pretty sure it has me interested in conducting covert social research.

OK I just gotta ask- what is "motorboating"?
Concerned I may be missing out on something here! Help a butch sista out!

Uh... place face between partners breasts, move face from side to side while either yelling or making "motorboat" sounds..

Oh MY GAY!
Why have I never heard of this?!?
I have never been motorboated, and suddenly I feel as if I've never been loved at all!
*placing motorboating ad on craigslist*
That is TOO funny!!!

Toughy · 12-29-2009, 10:01 AM

see this is what I dont get..........

All of us suspend reality and believe a penis shaped dildo is actually a real live cock.....butch cock. I know for myself when I strap on it's my cock. A blowjob I can feel on this detachable butch cock because that butch cock is real in my mind and her mind.

I also have had my clit be a clit and my clit has also been a cock. It all depends on what's going on (energy wise) between me and the femme in my (or her) bed. She can suck my clit or suck my cock. Whichever it is is real in my mind and her mind.

Sometimes suspending reality is (in my mind) part and parcel of this erotic dance called butch/femme.

I also know that my sexual boundaries are different with every femme I have ever been with. I have had what is typically thought of as stone relationships as well as relationships where all parts are accessible all the time. And relationships that fall in the middle. As I said my sexuality is pretty fluid.

I'm done with this derail.

oh...........frisky..........I'm not offended in any way........takes a lot more than this to offend me.

I have always wondered how a femme relates to her dick/cock. It can't be the same as the way a butch relates to her/hys cock.....or can it?

anyway that would be a total derail and doesn't require an answer.....

*jumping on the derail track for a sec*

However a femme wants to relate would be my opinion

*jumps back off*

friskyfemme · 01-02-2010, 12:53 PM

Good day to all...

As it is with my thought patterns...this thought just came to mind with relationship to labelling...it seems that persons label themselves based on the event taking place when they discover themselves...similar to the Native American tradition of naming a child based upon the awareness of the name giver at the time the individual presents his/her self. Or, as in religious ceremonies, where the celebrated one receives or choses another name that personifies who they are...I personally believe that we identify with the energy related to our name (label). stonefemme=7. Lucky! Now on a tangent
putting numerical value to labels here!

wait Kos...what is it you're jumping on and off of exactly?

Gemme · 12-29-2009, 12:06 AM

apretty, I really enjoy your pov most of the time, but I have to admit I find it a bit dismissive to an entire group of femmes (myself included) to say you don't believe in Stone Femmes, with the exception of one kind.

Well, Hell...I can't tell anyone what to believe in or not, so I'm kind of stumped as to how to approach you on this. Everyone's free to their opinon, of course, and that's yours but as someone who was effectively tossed aside into the "make believe" pile, I have to say that I do, indeed, exist and I do not fall into the definition that you carry for Stone Femmes.

I am respectful of my partner's boundaries without personally having the 'no fly' zones that one may typically associate with Stones and I am actually VERY attracted to who I sleep with....when I can get him close enough to do so.

I figured as much, as I've read you for years now, but just wanted to put it out there that we do exist.
