Mine came from back in the day of Planet Out. A chat friend kept calling me a "Strappin fine butch" hell I'm not even sure I knew what a butch was at that time. Then as a joke I entered the room as "Strappie" and I kept it. When I started to go to the "other" site 12 yrs ago I used Strappie and then when they made the changes to the upgraded site I couldn't get back in. I wrote to Rhon and he said he would take care of it for me, However he miss spelled my name and put "Strappin"

YEAHHHHHH I have my name back!!!!

Started out as AtLast in the dist site. Yes, there was a connection to a femme and the song (she is deceased and the first femme I was involved with), but mainly it had to do with being the last born in my family (with a large gap between myself and my siblings) and my coming to the B-F dynamic (as a butch) later in life (although, not to lesbianism).

I added Home for this site because I do feel like I have come home in my identity as a butch and wanted to have my screen name here reflect this.
