Lusting after lingerie...

That's why it felt particularly icky when a few butches started publicly licking their chops at us here. And also strange for a butch to scold us for our lack of feminism when it comes to choosing when or why we would wear sexy, and presumably expensive, lingerie that may be terribly impractical to wear while changing the cat litter, for instance. Those wispy little things have a very short life. You can trust me on this- We're capable of making practical decisions about when and where to spend the few useful hours during which those sexy little things look and feel beautiful.

I wanted to bold your verbiage above Cheryl, for me it felt icky as well and "slut shamey" thank you all who came in and put the light on the problem that arises a lot when it comes to how Femme's express their sexuality and sexual empowerment. The misogyny tends to drip into our personal canvas of how we choose to present and entice. It's good to see that we (Femmes) will not cater to a non-femme peoples and their mysogyny/sexism because frankly it has no room in our LGBTQI spaces.... It feels good to see sisters hold strong it really really does..
