I Think We Could All Use A Reminder That Butchfemme Is A Subculture Within An Already Marginalized Identity.

i think we could all use a reminder that butchfemme is a subculture within an already marginalized identity. it's completely okay if you have no interest in participating in butchfemme culture itself as long as you are respectful. butches historically faced persecution for being gender non-conforming. lesbians are victims of violence for failure to comply with patriarchy. to paint butchfemme culture as heteronormative (and butches and femmes as upholders of patriarchy) is ignorant and homophobic. our active resistance of a system that oppresses us is not heteronormative. calling a butch or a femme gender-conforming or claiming that they uphold patriarchal standards is homophobic. educate yourself on the history of violence our community has faced.

Kink: When someone gets possessive over me

Huge commotion for the butches who can't or won't work out. To the butches who can't play any sports. To the butches who can't build or fix. To the butches who don't have the physical strength that can be so romanticized in online—but not only—spaces. To the butches who need any type of mobility aid. To the butches with any type of mental disability. To the butches with chronic conditions. To the shy or reserved butches. To the fat butches. To the butches who desire to be sought out. To the butches who can't or won't make the first move. To the butches who still suffer with the predatory stigma. To the butches with softer voices and softer personalities. To the transfeminine butches. To the submissive butches. To the average sized butches. To the butches with long hair. To the she/her, he/him, they/them, or any other combination of butches. To the butches who embrace their own brand of femininity or their own brand of masculinity. To the butches on E. To the butches on T. To the butches who decided to undergo top surgery. To the butches who decided against it. To the butches who have chosen a new name for themselves...

To every butch who doesn't fit into the tough stereotype, and who does not necessarily need to fit into any other type of stereotype.

To every butch who feels they won't ever find someone who truly sees them, loves them...

You will.

😭😭😭😭😭

I want a girlfriend soooo bad!! I wanna put a picture of them on a heart locket and always wear it 😞😞😞 I wanna write them love letters and get matching keychains every time we go somewhere on date!! I wanna lay in bed and do nothing but enjoy each other's presence!!!!!

Trans femmes

He/him femmes

Loud femmes, femmes who aren’t afriad to have their voice heard
