Butch and femme are not codependent identities; they don’t need each other to exist. That doesn’t change the fact that, every time I write about butch identity, it gives me new ways to perceive and evaluate my own femme self.
That’s why I participate in the Butch Lab Symposium.
Please, try to read all of the entries. Take the time to comment. We don’t have a community unless we have a conversation.
