Smile Non-packing butches

I read the "Packing 101" thread, and rather than derail it, I'm curious if I'm the only butch here who doesn't pack, and has no interest in packing?

I don't pack, have no desire to do so. it causes me more dysphoria. Toys during play time are ok, that doesn't bother me. but, it totally messes with my mind that the "packer" ...comes off...

LOL. Why am I admitting that I don't pack? I figured maybe if I felt more male-oriented I would, but I definitely identify as a female and prefer female pronouns.

Eh, it's just a thought.

Pack or don't pack. It doesn't make anyone less or more butch either way. Do whatever you want.

Exactly!!! Was waiting for someone to say that!!!!

I've been with butches that do and those that don't. Some do sometimes, others never do.

I certainly have never felt anyone was ever "more butch" than another.

IMO being butch is in the mind and heart. It is not defined with what is hanging or not hanging between someone's legs.

Used to soft pack.. really don't anymore, doesn't seem to have caused any problem... I'm still able to function... you know, live, laugh, love and be loved.

It's all good... xD

My butch packs most of the time. However, she is NOT male oriented, and I know she is absolutely female-identified 100% of the time. Not Femme, but female. Big diff.

So does that make her c*ck a Femme c*ck, because she is not male ID'ing? hell no!

I love the fact that for HER, she can feel comfortable in her own skin and with or without packing. Same as for everyone else. Find what is comfortable and TRUE for you, and live that life!

No, you aren't the only one. Thanks for helping the rest of us realize we aren't alone.

<---not a fan of wearing makeup, still as femme as they come.

pack, don't pack, doesn't change who you are. There are butches on this site who don't use c*cks at all, so I hardly think you are alone.

I have packed in the past both soft and hard, but have not in a long time.

Nothing wrong with doing it or not doing it just depends on your preference.

I do not own any kind of soft pack, so obviously I do not pack. If I am going to a play party and intend to play then I pack and I pack hard because I am going to use it.

Let's see, circa 1970 Amarillo TX, when I came out we used socks to pack and I only knew folks that packed if they were in a drag show.

There are also butch folk out here who do not strap on a cock. Doesn't make them more or less butch, just makes them a non-packing, non-strapping butch.

Gender has nothing to do with sexual proclivities.
