Do you know what kind of lesbian you are? Did you know there were different varieties of lesbian? Some people take these labels pretty seriously. Others like to joke about them. Here are the three most common lesbian terms:
A BUTCH – is a woman who is strongly masculine in character and dress, who tops her partners sexually (and sometimes emotionally), and who does not wish to be touched genitally. Not all stone butches identify in female terms, some are known to identify with male pronouns, and many stone butches do not identify themselves with lesbian or within the lesbian community. A common partner for a stone butch is a Femme. Butches are very diverse in emotion and sexual expression.
A STEM – is a woman who exhibits some stereotypical butch lesbian traits without fitting the masculine stereotype associated with butch lesbians. These traits may or may not include short hair, clothing that was designed for men, and masculine mannerisms and behaviors. Soft butches generally appear androgynous, rather than adhering to strictly feminine or masculine norms. In the spectrum of gender expression among lesbians, a soft butch lies closer to a butch lesbian than to a lipstick lesbian.
A FEMME – is a woman that society considers to be a TYPICAL woman—a feminine woman in appearance and behavior. Though @ times she can be seen as AGGRESSIVE, she is still LADYLIKE in persona. She is normally the one that bottoms sexually and does not wish to touch the genitals of her BUTCH partner.
I've seen them all. I've seen some lesbians that look good to me till I get up on them and realize their women. UGH! What a let down. LMAO!

ReplyDeleteThese are totally wrong.
ReplyDelete"...A BUTCH – is a woman who is strongly masculine in character and dress, who tops her partners sexually (and sometimes emotionally), and who does not wish to be touched genitally."
You got this half right. Yeah it's a STONE Butch but not all Butches are stone. And sorry, but there are more Butch bottoms out there than I can count. Not all Butches top their partners. And since when did orientation define it?
"....She is normally the one that bottoms sexually and does not wish to touch the genitals of her BUTCH partner."
That's a STONE Femme. Most Femmes are happy to touch thier partner and often ask to.
"...Soft butches generally appear androgynous, rather than adhering to strictly feminine or masculine norms. In the spectrum of gender expression among lesbians, a soft butch lies closer to a butch lesbian than to a lipstick lesbian."
Nope. Wrong again. That my dear, is a "Boi".
"...and many stone butches do not identify themselves with lesbian or within the lesbian community..."
I'm sorry, but, WHAT THE H***?? So you're implying that if they're stone they're what, Trans? It's called being Queer.
Try actually KNOWING these things before writing them down?
(Signed, a QUEER, TRANS-BUTCH DADDI TOP. Define that!)
