To some it may be the same as being attracted to a type or look. But for me, being attracted to gender expression (masculine female) is my sexuality. Being attracted to a type (sporty, geek, metrosexual, dapper) is a bit different as that type is a subset of masculine female. Some express their masculinity in a dapper/urban meterosexual way, or a sporty way or a masculine geek way (my dad is masculine geek - dresses and behaves in that fashion), or backwoods/country masculine, or....

My personal understanding of sexuality is not "type" but I have preference to type.. My sexuality is not a preference, unfortunately. I wish it was. Would make my life a lot easier....

More love (and/or sex) in the world seems like a good thing to me. There are already too many narrow minded people. If you are butch and are attracted to butches, enjoy. Someone having an issue with butch on butch (I have encountered the on this site) reminds me of the cis males who throw a tizzy fit when they see/hear/think about gay men getting it on. If it isn't your relationship, it isn't your business.

Glad the thread has been positive. I was expecting a train wreck and am pleasantly surprised.

For me, the way I read it is that this site is for butches AND femmes. Not necessarily always butches who are into femmes and vice versa. I'd say the majority of us here are into the butch/femme dynamic--but there's space for other butches and femmes who are into different dynamics as well. I think it's important to make space for everyone because butches and femmes are NOT cookie cutters. Openmindedness is free and really doesn't hurt anyone.

Default thinking out loud

Sometimes when I think about both dynamics and the fact that I personally can be equally attracted to either a femme, butch, or another trans I wonder if it isn't maybe a different type of bi-sexuality. For me especially since I do id as male. Guess technically that would be pansexuality. I don't know just thinking out loud though I do get what honeybarbara is saying. Actually agree with it poor choice of words on my previous post, as usual

I'm grateful for that. As a butch lesbian who has never really gotten into the butch-femme dynamic, I have found some online spaces that actively excluded me. It hurts to be closed out.

I'm glad you are here! I think this site is more open than others, but some people aren't. I didn't interpret the site name to be only people in butch-femme relationships.

I keep an open mind. While I tend to prefer and can more easily fall in love with a femme, there's nothing quite like a dapper, intelligent, humorous butch who knows what she's doing in bed.
