You should get out more............

The butches I know who gave birth certainly don't feel their masculinity has been taken away or changed at all.

And if your masculinity is threatened by reading a comic book........well never mind..............('too butch to imagine' my ass..... I can give you lessons if you like)

omg...i love this comic!!

i know three butch women who have given birth. they are all fabulous mothers and are lacking not a damned thing in the butch department!

IMO it's just silly to think a butch wouldn't or couldn't or shouldn't give birth. It's a blessing to go through having a baby, if you choose to do so, no matter what anyone else thinks.

My ex from a few years back was butch and had a daughter. She was a fantastic mother.

One of the most wonderful weddings i've ever been to was when she walked her daughter down the isle in a tux and gave her away.

Truly was elegant and beautiful.

Funny comic btw

Funny! Will have to see how the series progresses....

As to the whole butch mom thing.... *shrug*.... my boy has always said I was more of a dad then a mom, but dadgum if he didn't survive anyway.... in fact there's nothing he delights in more then a good "your mom" joke.... *huge wolfish grin*

I like this. I was skeptical at first, but it grew on me. Thanks to Quintease for posting the link.

The drawings remind me of Alison Bechdel's Dykes to Watch Out for or her award winning book FunHome.

Wasn't that Kim Dingle, the butch photographer whose work was featured at the Guggenheim about four years ago—anyone remember that huge photo of her, a big butch mom, sitting cross-legged, nude, nursing her baby? It was so in-your-face butch mom, I loved it!!
