#I’m more futch then anything

[ramblesbiab]

I woke up and can’t stop thinking about a hard-packing femme. Huge strap barely tucked under her skirt as she struts around like the goddess she knows she is. Flirting with a pretty boy butch as his eyes can’t stop glancing down, and he thinks about how much bigger hers is then his. Maybe they sneak off to the bathroom or an alley out back, and she puts him down on his knees, then tells him to stroke his cock while worshipping hers. Soft, needy mouth wrapped around her, taking as much as he can - he’s not used to sucking cock, but dammit, he’s going to put his all into it. And he adores the way her fingers weave through his short, fluffy hair, pulling him closer without being too forceful. She can’t have her pretty boy choking too much on the first night, after all. 🥰

absolutely horrible when your sexuality and gender identity influence each other. youre telling me there are nuances to this thing? i want to simplify it like a large fraction

[doomedyuri-69]

Ever after high lesbians and where I think they fall on the Butch - femme chart

Faybelle: Soft femme (she’s definitely feminine but not overly, she’s still athletic and enjoys the stereotypically masculine things involved with sports)

Briar: high femme (she’s a pretty princess who consistently serves cunt, a living Barbie doll if you will)

Apple: Femme (also a pretty princess just too nerdy / academically focused to care as much about her appearance as briar)

Kitty: soft femme / butchy femme (she’s pretty androgynous but still prefers feminine clothing to masculine clothing)

Maddie: futch (she’s beyond gender)

Lizzie: Femme (pretty princess need I say more)

Cerise: Butch (she’s a Butch Queen I mean come on she plays football)

Darling: Butch (I’m a Butch darling truther I won’t take anything else)

more fetchen headcanons ^___^ bcuz i’m bored

(could be dating or pre-dating. frankly it works either way.)

•◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡◠◡•

-karen absolutely loves physical touch . this is semi canon but physical touch is her love language

-yk what else is her love language? biting. karen is a biter through and through . it took a while for gretchen to get used to it but now she thinks it’s the cutest thing in the world

-karen is so gentle with her bites tho . it never hurts gretchen and she absolutely adores it because it means karen genuinely really likes her

-karen loves the most random parts of gretchen’s body . her shoulders and her eyebrows come to mind

-if gretchen’s wearing a tank top, trust her shoulders will be covered in faint lipstick marks by the end of the day

-karen sometimes struggles to focus in class because she’s wondering what gretchen’s doing

-gretchen buys literally anything and everything that reminds her of karen . she later gives her those things as gifts

-karen always sends gretchen songs that remind her of her. this results in gretchen listening to the same song on repeat for days on end

-sometimes karen gets distracted while doing her homework and draws little stick figure versions of her and gretchen in the margins getting up to various shenanigans

-karen lowkey thinks gretchen is the hottest person she’s ever met but like she couldn’t explain how even if she tried

-gretchen sometimes pulls karen in by her belt loops if she needs her attention

-karen loves gretchen’s singing voice . she sometimes asks gretch to sing her random songs when she’s over at her place

-they share food and drinks to the point where neither even have to ask . like if karen gets a snack after school, the first thing she’ll do is offer gretchen a bite before even taking a bite herself

-karen remembers literally everything that’s ever happened as long as she’s known gretchen . despite this, she does not remember off the top of her head how long she and gretchen have been friends

-half of gretchen’s closet is just clothes karen’s left at her house . gretchen sometimes wears karen’s clothes absentmindedly

-that said, gretchen starts dressing very differently during senior year. karen is very attracted to this change. (i’m just a futch gretchen liker)

-between eighth grade and freshman year, karen and gretchen got matching promise rings. after regina commented negatively on them, one continued to wear hers longer than the other.

sorry for leaving you with fangst (fetchen angst) at the end .

about this post of yours:

https://www.tumblr.com/butchpeace/759736966027902976/no-one-calls-men-they-if-a-mans-presentation?source=share

I find the rise of using they/them for women more than men astounding /negative. Like none of my male friends have been mistake for using they/them pronouns instead of he/him. Yet I have been mistakenly been referred to as they instead of she ~twice~

I’m a woman. I’m not trans or nonbinary. Im literally a woman. I’m not butch. I am queer (bisexual sapphic) but I’m a femme/futch queer. I’m not gnc. I have long hair. I have somewhat thick natural eyelashes. I have a voluptuous body that used to make me uncomfortable but I’ve grown into it now (getting catcalled did not help my eventually becoming comfortable). Like the only thing masculine about me on a first impression is my deep voice but some women do just naturally have deep voices. I… do not understand how I’ve been misgendered twice. I told this guy I was dating that I’ve been misgendered twice with they pronouns instead of she and he legit started laughing and said he didn’t understand how anyone could mistake me for anything but a woman. I feel like the trans movement has been stepping on the women’s movement in the process- like, we should work together instead of this! I told one of my trans friends that he was like one of the first trans ppl I met who actually wasn’t misogynistic and he was like “what? That’s so sad! No trans ppl should be misogynistic! NOBODY should be!” and he apologized to me on their behalf even tho he never said anything sexist aksksjjssk I appreciate him

im not even upset that I wasn’t immediately assumed that I’m a woman, which would be a totally understandable (and in my case, the correct assumption to make!) assumption to make. I’m just upset that they didn’t ask me first if I wanted to be referred to as they. Bc I thought that the trans movement was all about asking what ppl’s preferred pronouns are… I guess that’s the case until assuming women want to be called they without checking with them. Trans movement shifting to literally misgendering femme women >:(

Thanks for sharing! You’re absolutely right - this shit doesn’t happen to men, and it’s weird as hell.

THE 3MIX FIC… ITS SOOO GOOD 😭😭😭 i really love the au and was wondering.. do you have any picture references on how they look / how you imagine them in the fic? or any hcs? i’m starving for more knowledge on them… 🤍🤍

omg tysm!!! i have sm to say abt this au ah. Ah!!!! i don’t have any picture references but as for hcs in general, here’s some

general stuff:

najeong are in their mid 30s (old to them) and jihyo just turned 30 (old to her)

jihyo is a traveling nurse (obv), jeongyeon is the head foreman of a construction company, and nayeon used to be an elementary teacher before her accident

najeong are high school sweethearts who got married pretty early (their early 20s) while nayeon was still in college. they both just kinda knew they were the one. and then when jihyo showed up, they knew she was also the one

they love each other so much it’s stupid

ok i’ll put the rest under a read more bc this post will probably be super long bc i rlly have. so much to say abt this au it’s crazy!!!! i rlly love the three of them so bad

jihyo:

as for appearances, i guess she’s like… imagine the futchest picture if jihyo ever but take away the boobs LMAO she hasn’t had surgery (she wants it, but it’s just a lot of recovery time) yet. she’s gotten some ffs, which was A Lot on her so she’s nervous abt doing anything else

she’s the shortest of the three- which pisses her off but najeong loves it abt her

she is on the autism spectrum just undiagnosed

she has a lot of sensory issues, esp when it comes to food or clothing

she has a weighted blanket that she uses a lot- she brings it with her when she has to go out on call. she doesn’t need it at home bc nayeon and jeongyeon always cuddle her while she sleeps so she’s good

her love language is touch! she’s almost always attached to najeong when she’s home. it’s shocking to her how much she loves physical contact with them, because she was mostly touch repulsed before they got together

her favorite food ever is kimchi stew (more specifically the one nayeon makes), so they eat it a lot while she’s home

she loves her job a lot even if it’s stressful sometimes. she had always wanted to be a nurse and to work with kids, so she loves getting to do it. she has a rlly strong desire to help people

she doesn’t talk to her family much anymore. sometimes her parents will message her to check in. they don’t even know about her relationship with najeong- and jihyo probably won’t ever tell them

she doesn’t experience a lot of dysphoria anymore. at first, she really did. but over the years it’s gone away- najeong take such good care of her and reassure her so much that it helped her a lot. she’s doing the best mentally that she has been in a really long time thanks to those two

she was much more femme when she first met najeong. but over time she became a futch- the clothes are just more comfortable. najeong don’t hold her to a single expectation when it comes to how she presents, so she doesn’t hold herself to one anymore either

she chose to take estrogen shots over pills because they were weekly. the pills were daily and she knew she might not always remember to take them. nayeon helps her with them now. jihyo isn’t scared of needles by any means, but she really appreciates having someone there with her. sometimes jeongyeon is there too, but her work schedule has her out of the house early so she’s not there all the time (as much as she wishes she could be)

jeongyeon:

she’s the tallest of the three. she has short hair- short on the sides but kinda long on the top (nayeon actually cuts it for her!). her skin is also pretty tan from working outside all the time. she’s also got a lot of scars from where she’s accidentally hurt herself at work LMAO she can be kinda clumsy. she’s got a stocky build, but it’s mostly muscle. she likes her tummy fat though. she calls herself a little bear

nahyo have to Fight her to put on sunscreen. she insists she doesn’t need it but they still force her to put it on every morning

she bathes like a man. uses bar soap on her damn face with no skincare routine. used to use two in one shampoo/conditioner before she met jihyo. but of course she’s the one with the best skin out of all of them

she likes to tease and play around a lot but it’s her way of showing she loves them

her love language is acts of service. she does most of the heavier tasks around the house. jihyo helps, too, but it’s mostly jeongyeon. she refuses to let nayeon lift a finger most days- and she was like that long before the accident. she can be that way with jihyo, too- but jihyo is so stubborn and will do shit even if jeongyeon insists she can do it

she runs hot. her body is so warm and she sweats so damn much that she has to take two showers a day (which is probably why, despite everything, her skin is so clear)

she secretly has been wondering about going on t. she’s always struggled with feeling a disconnect to her body (nahyo knows this), and she thinks being on testosterone would alleviate some of that. she’s perfectly okay with getting called masculine terms- in fact she kind of prefers them. her gender rlly is just butch, and she takes a lot of pride in it. but testosterone rlly appeals to her. this might get explored in a future fic!!

she’s never shaved a day in her life LMAO and that will probably never change. nahyo loves it about her. she has a natural happy trail

she can be bad about bottling her emotions up. usually she’s the “strongest” of the three- she rarely cries, and when she does it gets the other two worked up. her biggest flaw is that she struggles with communication sometimes. she doesn’t like being too vulnerable, but she’s working on it

she went to trade school right out of high school- she couldn’t afford college, plus she’s always liked working with her hands. she loves her job even if it’s hard. she has a lot of energy despite how much she uses every day

she wants to seem so tough and scary but rlly she’s a giant softie. only for her girls though. but she also isn’t afraid to get physical with anyone who threatens them. in high school she spent a lot of time in detention because she would get into fights over nayeon so often

nayeon:

i’d say she looks closest to how she did during more & more if you just added a few years of age on her, lmao. she keeps her hair at her shoulders. she looks good for her age though! a lot of people mistake her for being the youngest of the three

she’s partially disabled due to the accident. she’s actually on a form of disability because of it. she can’t stand for long periods of time without being in pain- her leg was broken so bad that they were even considering removing it if the surgeries didn’t go well. it basically had to be rebuilt. she still struggles a bit with mobility, especially standing up. sometimes she has to use a cane. her joints bother her when it rains, and she takes meds for it

she’s really scared of driving now. even though the accident wasn’t her fault and nothing could have been done to stop it, she’s still scared. so she stays home a lot. when she gets exceptionally stir crazy, the three of them will go out to the park that’s down the road from their house. since she’s still scared of cars, she only goes out if jeongyeon or jihyo is driving- after a lot of convincing

she’s been diagnosed with ptsd because of it, and she struggles with it sometimes. she has nightmares about it a lot

jeonghyo love to spoil her omfg. jihyo especially buys her a lot of gifts (jeongyeon lowkey hates gifts, but she shows her love in a lot of other ways). she is literally their princess- and she can be a spoiled brat but they adore that about her

she’s been considering doing online teaching again. since she recovered, she spends a lot of time at the house. she usually does the basic tasks- laundry, light cleaning, cooking. she’s the self proclaimed housewife and she really loves it! but she rlly misses teaching a lot

her love language is words of affirmation. she is very communicative, always telling jeonghyo just how much she loves and cares about them.

her meds make her a heavy sleeper. she nods off a lot without meaning to.

she was actually the one who noticed jihyo first. she had her eyes on her the entire night- kept talking about her to jeongyeon. they’d never done anything like it before, but when they saw jihyo, they knew they couldn’t let her leave without saying something. and we all know how that worked out

she loves singing. oftentimes she’s singing or humming to herself. she has a rlly pretty voice, and jeonghyo love to listen to her sing

she would actually love to have kids, but she never could. her and jeongyeon actually did try in vitro, but it ended as a miscarriage- which was how she found out she couldn’t have kids. it was hard for her. jeongyeon even offered to try and carry- but nayeon knew she didn’t want to, and didn’t want to put her through that. they’ve talked about adoption a few times. jihyo is up for it, but with her job it would be hard for her to always be present in their kids life. plus since nayeon’s accident, it would be even more difficult for her to raise a baby. now that they’re older, it’s more of a passing fun thought. for now, they’d love to get a dog or cat (which might also be a future fic)

ok phew i’ll cool it for now. i have nsfw hcs of them too LMAO so if you’re interested in that too just lmk and i’ll make another post. tysm for asking about this, i’m rlly attached to this au already and i’d love to talk about it more!! i’m sure i’ll write more for them in the future

[radicallyreclaiming]

If I ever end up out of my marriage I don’t think I’ll ever be with a man again 😅 kinda but not even necessarily in a febfem way of choosing it politically, more just that I truly feel my being with men was out of trauma and internal shame after so long being abused for my sexuality, and I ended up with my husband because he at the time identified as a trans woman and I thought somehow that wasn’t the same because I was so inundated with tra logic. I truly don’t feel like I understand or connect with men, all my fondest memories and experiences are with women I have been with, and now that I’m not quite so isolated and out of touch with my feelings I find myself so wildly flustered by and attracted to particularly more butch/futch women who I interact with and disgusted by men in general 😅 just the look this person gave me today at the gym had me falling over myself and I can’t deny how absolutely different and nice it feels to acknowledge that when I feel like I’ve had to repress it my entire life. I just really wish I had realized a lot earlier so I could feel more able to really make that my life but I don’t know how to change anything at this point when I feel so stuck in a position of vulnerability not being able to afford life without my husband 😞 I’m trying to pull myself out of this life but it feels impossible to claw my way to independence after being stuck in the housewife role…

[arch-nemesis-of-our-own]

I love these matchup things so much

thank you for doing this. Can I have a hellaverse matchup (hazbin or helluva)

I’m biro ace, cis girl (she/her)

I am thoughtful, shy, disorganized, with a sense of humor. I am loud and enthusiastic around the people I’m close to, but silent around anyone else. I’m an INTP. My hobbies include singing, drawing, watching television and sometimes baking. The 4 horsemen of my music taste include Indie (maya hawke, kimya dawson) Pop, (megan thee stallion, janelle monae) Musicals (hazbin, heathers, legally blonde) and decades old music (jackson 5, shangri las)

I like gardens, comedy movies, horror podcasts, dogs (pretty much all animals except wasps, hornets and mosquitoes), fruits, thinking about things from my childhood

I dislike racists, homophobes, tramsphobes, etc. Cultural appropriation, pro lifers, lesbian fetishization, race fetishization too, People who talk to much, people who think they’re superior to others just because they’ve been in a fandom for longer, people who cut in line, and people who don’t pick up after their dogs

I am Black. Dark skinned, full lips, all of that. I’d say my fashion sense is near the middle of the futch scale, but more femme leaning.

I like people who are sweet, artsy and funny but who also have an asertive side. My top love languages are quality time and words of affirmation.

Your Helluva Boss matchup is...

Millie!!

I don't know, man, this was such a perfect match to me.

She loves listening to you sing. Karaoke nights are definitely a thing for you two.

Millie's just one of those people that makes you laugh and feel good. She tries her best to take you out of your shell but she'd never pressure at all.

Also, she's just like your personal planner. She casually remembers if you have anything you have to do today that you forgot.

I feel like Millie really does complement you a lot.

You guys are the type of duo to have severe inside jokes that are unexplainable to anyone else in the area. Just Moxxie and Loona deadpanning as you guys lose your shit over what looks like the most unfunny bit ever.

I can just imagine you guys staying up and just talking. Music playing quietly in the background while you guys just chat and air your thoughts out.

She is also very invested in your podcasts.

And she is definitely borrowing your clothes.

Baking dates!! Or at least attempted baking dates. Not too sure if you should trust Millie to focus on baking while you're also goofing off in the kitchen.

Your Hazbin Hotel matchup is...

Lucifer!!

He's just such a silly guy.

He loves spending time with you. he would definitely watch a musical for you.

Lucifer prides himself on being able to make you laugh. He loves seeing your enthusiasm when you're around your friends and just loves seeing you all happy and shit.

If anyone pisses you off, he'll either angrily seethe behind you or actually confront them, honestly, it's whatever you're comfortable with it.

Gardens with you!! He finds it so fun and calming. And, honestly, just loves being with you.

[robin-the-blind-sniper-rifle]

I agree with all of this but my big mouth wants to say what I agree with most.

For one, you can just tell by the way Robin looks at Nancy that she thinks she’s beautiful. With those kitten heels and pink skirts? Robin Buckley is dead, my friends. She thinks those clothes on Nancy are so pretty she can’t even think straight (pun intended). But like OP said, Robin just doesn’t like them for her, and that’s fine. Honestly I don’t think Nancy would want Robin to always dress that way. The eyes Nancy gives her when she’s dressed the way she wants to be dressed says enough.

I’m also a much bigger fan of the “what if she doesn’t like me that way” versus “what if she’s straight” argument. As someone who fights for lesbian Nancy and is writing a long ass oneshot on her entire experience, it is much more complex, more angsty, and far more interesting to read. I don’t think the fandom gives Nancy enough credit for how smart she actually is. There’s no way she isn’t aware of different sexualities, and despite what was originally assumed of her, I don’t think she’s a bigoted person either. Is there fear? Yes. Is there total denial? I don’t think so.

With the femme and butch thing, one hundred percent agree. Anyone who says Robin isn’t butch, or at least very masc, needs to rewatch season four. And Nancy is one of the most femme characters I’ve ever seen, although as OP stated, I like the idea of futch Nancy when you think about her wardrobe. Also as someone who is futch I project onto that sometimes.

Absolutely agree with the switchverse. I see Nancy as being very dominant, but also willing to let Robin take the wheel because it makes her feel loved. Robin herself also coming up with weird ideas is so in character for her it makes me smile. Although I will say when it comes to cuddling, Nancy makes an adorable little spoon.

I cannot emphasize enough how important the Barb conversation is. There’s no way they never talked about Barb. In my Nancy WIP, I have Barb as her first crush, and it’s canon that Robin knew Barb before she became friends with Nancy. Barb is important and their relationship very much connects to it.

Lastly, I am a little tired of every piece of Ronance content involving Steddie. Don’t get me wrong, I adore Steddie. Those two make me smile so hard. But if I want to read a Steddie fic or look at Steddie content, I’ll go to the tag. Just like Ronance. It’s obviously okay to tag them both as long as both relationships are relevant to the story. If I came for one and not the other, it is frankly kind of annoying.

So sorry for writing an essay on your post! I just agree and I’m an English Major before literally anything else haha

okay unpopular RONANCE OPINIONS time

ok so my last post abt unpopular opinions didnt even contain a fraction of my unpopular ronance opinions and i didnt want to clutter it soooo separate post >:)

- starting off insane. robin is NOT cat coded. some of y’all get this trope very right and understand that robin is dog coded but some of y’all need to listen up!! just cause robin is snarky and not super touchy does not mean anything!!

- monster x monster ronance is better than monster x hunter ronance i said what i said!! vampire!nancy and werewolf!robin takes it every single time

- robin does NOT insult nancy’s style. she loves nancy’s style, just NOT on her. if you write robin going into nancy’s closet as anything other than “she’s so pretty” you’re wrong!!

- idk what it is about y’all but the way y’all think nancy babies robin is weird… they argue and banter!! if robin washes one of nancy’s shirts wrong she’s gonna have to beg for mercy

- they’re both mutually protective of the other. after all that shit they went through together?? if u mess with one of them its war. robin learns to throw a punch im so serious.

- im a much bigger fan of them pining from a distance in a “what if she doesn’t see me that way” than a “what if she’s straight” way. both of them are smart and i like the idea that they clock each other and THEN pine miserably lol.

-i feel like people are way too afraid of embracing the fact that robin is very masc and nancy is very femme because of the made-up problem of conforming them to heterosexuality. like who told u that was a problem they’re 2 girls who kiss come on now (i do love futch nancy on occasion tho <3)

- nancy wears lipstick and robin bites. they’re both MARKED man

- ok. very vocal abt this but. i am a switchverse ronance truther. they both do everything and take turns end EXPERIMENT. none of that topdom subbottom nancy robin nonsense its not realistic and not true to them!!

- idk why no one writes them talking about barb but like… they definitely talk about barb

- tbh sick of any ronance content that involves steddie ever bc it always ends up about them and im. sick of it.

- while everyone seems to agree that neither robin or nancy would stay in hawkins if somebody paid them, no one makes them travelers!! i feel so strongly about them just. exploring. a part of nancy’s biggest fear is settling and robin has canonically expressed interest in exploring different countries and continents, let them explore together!!

- in general i don’t really like enemies to lovers ronance. rivals to lovers ronance is funny as fuck and i heavily endorse it but i feel like enemies just doesn’t fit them?? teasing one-sided flirty rivals is SOOO much better than mean flirty enemies when it comes to these two

okay this is all i can think of please dont send me to the stocks thank u and have a good night

[yrbutchgf]

so I realised I’m bc not a lesbian a few days ago and it’s been very difficult trying to let go off thinking of myself as butch. I know that I’m the past bi women have used it but I know a lot of lesbians who really don’t like bi women using it and say lesbians should at least have some words to themselves so I figured I’d be better off respecting that

i'm going to be honest with you. if you feel safer not calling yourself butch i can't fault you. i myself am currently closeted to most people IRL about being bisexual. but you should know:

- the terms butch and femme didn't originate in lesbian bar culture; they originated in ballroom culture, where they refer to people of all kinds of genders and sexualities. click here for more information about the origins of butch/femme as well as the use of butch/femme by all lgbt people.

- regardless, plenty of lesbians recognize and honor the place that bi women have and have had in bar culture regardless (see: leslie feinberg). we have been there, continue to be there, will be there tomorrow and and a month and a year and a decade from now.

as always, the feinberg quote:

“And I would say that people who were referred to as drag queens, [sh*m*les], female impersonators, drag kings, diesel [d-slur]s, butches, et cetera, uh… Nowadays we think of them sometimes as just being synonymous with a certain kind of sexuality, but in fact there’s a lot of butch women who sleep with other butches, or who are bisexual, and the same thing is true with feminine men.”

- at the same time, bi butches, femmes and futches have spoken at length and for decades about their struggle with biphobia in the butch/femme and wlw scenes in general. you feeling "better off" minimizing your place in the community isnt a new thing, nor is it your fault. on that note,

- if the people around you hate and deride bi women who call themselves butch and femme, they're likely going to deride bi women for other things as well, because that's how biphobes work. you need better friends.

more than that, the very idea that lesbians' and bi women's experiences are necessarily, always, and completely separate is flawed to begin with. who gains anything from that, in reality? who gains from the belief that lesbians and bi women have only surface level traits in common, that the only thing they share is an attraction to women, that lesbians are alone in their experiences just as bi women are alone in their experiences? nobody. there is nothing we stand to gain or better understand by pushing each other away, nor by tamping down our truths.

nobody's taking anything from anyone by identifying this way or that, that's not how it works. there's no harm or dilution of the terms "butch" or "femme" or "lesbian" that comes from you calling yourself bisexual and butch at the same time. these identities are strong and self-sustaining, and the idea of people using them who have different experiences or different sexualities is not going to destroy them, nor does it preclude butch lesbians and femme lesbians from being lesbians rather than bisexuals. does that make sense? you being what you are isn't some residue that rubs off on your community and makes the members of it or the terms you use somehow impure. it's actually a startlingly beautiful thing to be who you are. it's okay. and you deserve to have people around you who will convince you of that.

Additions made as needed. Feel free to ask for tags!

I’m not a frequent personal poster. Anything skull tagged is free to reblog because they’re just-for-fun fantasy posts. More personal info down below.

I’m a nonbinary futch lesbian, with futch acting as my primary gender label. (It is not in any way related to the joke scale. My gender identity is complex and I will block those who attempt to dumb me down into a joke. If you’d like to hear about my identity out of a genuine desire to understand, you can DM me.)

I prefer masculine and mature feminine complements (such a handsome, beautiful, etc). Masculine leaning titles like king are ok, but things like male, boi, etc. are reserved for my girlfriend.

Currently strapping with a New York Collective Shiloh Pack and Play (in Wildberry) and packing with a 3” ReelMagik Basic.

I’m Primal Top/Dom-leaning. Not at all opposed to bottoming/subbing but you have to overpower me first. I really like competitive/ rough intimacy amongst other things.

I’m not necessarily butch or femme exclusive, but I do have a big soft spot for femmes.

My love of skeletons is NOT a necro or pro-ED thing. I prefer to see myself as my bones instead of my flesh due to body pain-related dysphoria.

Content on this blog includes the aforementioned skeletons, blood, monsters, primal/play-fighting/rough/aggressive themes, etc. I do not like degrading aggression so please do not conflate any of those.

How likely is it that a lesbian would want top surgery just like someone ftm? Like 0.1%? She doesn't consider herself trans at all.

This definitely happens, but this isn’t really a thing there’ve been stats or studies on. (At least anything credible, IMO.)

There’s a few concepts that I think are good to understand when representing this kind of thing.

there are definitely GNC (gender nonconforming) lesbians, some who identify as cis, some who identify as nonbinary, and it can transcend that as well.

there is no universal lesbian experience

lesbian can be a gender identity

butch, futch, fem/me, can all be gender identities too

while this isn’t something a lot of people in the contemporary anglosphere seem to understand, there are a lot of places where there are identities that are translated as lesbian, but aren’t necessarily going to fit in with the colonized definition of that.

When I first came across the website for lesloveboat (based in Taiwan), which is one of the first online retailers for commercial chest binders, I’m pretty sure I remember them stating on their website that their products may appeal to lesbians and trans people. (I’m pretty sure that’s what the ‘les’ part was short for, but I don’t know.) They’ve rebranded to be more broadly inclusive, and it’s very possible that I am misremembering. But I don’t think I am, and I think some of that goes to show that cultural ideas around these things and who is inclined toward them vary.

Ultimately, anyone may or may not want top surgery, regardless of their identity. It’s definitely not something the mainstream has really caught onto yet. I hope that with time, more people will feel more free to make whatever decisions with their body that feel right to them.

Evaluting Gatchaman Crowds Through Rui’s Outfits

12 Days of Aniblogging 2020, Day 1

Oh, I’m fashionably late to this one. Gatchaman Crowds is a 2013 superhero anime that serves as a soft reboot of the old tokusatsu franchise, only now with 21st century shitty anime tropes. From this painfully generic setup emerges a surprisingly layered evaluation of technological disruption in the smartphone era. For this reason, Crowds is a favorite amongst anime bloggers as a superhero work that’s actually trying to do something interesting.

Unfortunately I don’t care about any of these guys

But it’s also a favorite amongst all sorts of weirdos because of the character Rui Ninomiya. A horrifying amalgamation of the technolibertarian CEO and trans femme hacker archetypes, Rui is by far the most interesting character in the show, because they’re a surprisingly prescient look at how the tech industry will function throughout the 2010s. But they’re also a ‘boy’ who never leaves their house without dressing in the most girly clothes imaginable. Predictably, this is catnip for me. But the funniest part of the whole situation is that nobody ever addresses it. Rui never provides an explanation for their outfits and the rest of the cast just uses she/her until they properly get acquainted and switch to he/him.

I could tell you that Rui’s obviously trans and wrap up the post right there, but that’s honestly not the most interesting angle of attack here. So I’m just going to use whatever pronouns I feel like in the moment for them and focus on what really matters: fashion! Rui has a surprisingly large wardrobe throughout the show, so I’ll be doing the heavy lifting of ranking each of her outfits. Oh, and also maybe a little analysis of what she represents. Spoilers for the whole show, of course.

7. The Yellow Dress

Let me lay out Rui’s ideology before I lay into their fashion disaster. You see, they’re a tech disruptor who believes that governments and bureaucracies are too slow to achieve the monumental (yet unspecified) change that society needs. So, they preside over a smartphone app called GALAX that successfully predicts Pokemon Go’s geosocial AR gimmick three years early. GALAX is a technolibertarian’s wet dream – crowdsourced emergency response, interest-based meetups, and matchmaking for people who need specific help and the people who can help them, all deeply gamified.

Their outfit here is about as messy as their politics, but at the same time, what a look. She’s got blue-and-white-striped programming thigh highs on under her combat boots, which are both such trans iconography, you know? While they may just be a reflection of early-2010s 4chan crossdressing culture, it’s also totally possible that Rui directly influenced or reinforced trans girl fashion, like the accelerationist she is. What a prescient show, in all sorts of weird ways.

6. Lace-up Dress with Bunny Ears

It wouldn’t be an anime girl cosplay without some bunny ears, now would it? Rui spends 5 minutes in an early episode just wandering around the city in this outfit, listening to people’s conversations and feelings on GALAX. There’s something very funny about how nobody even notices them, like they’re completely invisible despite their ridiculous outfit. This actually factors back into the tech stuff! Like pretty much every tech company, Rui’s app and vision are both sleek and shiny but rely on tremendous amounts of dirty labor kept as hidden as possible. From Amazon’s inhumane warehouse conditions to Facebook’s trauma-inducing moderator farms to Apple’s child labor-tainted supply chains, there’s always suffering humans behind the too-good-to-be-true magic of tech companies. Rui’s lie by omission is failing to mention that the app relies on invisible extradimensional beings called CROWDS that are manually controlled by underpaid workers to assist its users. One of the workers comes to Rui challenging their vision and arguing that they should be sharing this tech with the movers and shakers of the world, not trying to keep it invisible. He threatens a collective walkout and Rui fires him. At this point, we’re not even operating on metaphors.

5. Green Business Casual

Sure, most tech companies have cruel labor underbellies, but there’s also the separate risk of moral rot. It’s what causes Microsoft to take on ICE contracts and Google to develop censored versions of their search engine at the whims of authoritarians. Many tech companies start off with an altruistic message, but without a serious ethical core, they will start doing a whole lot of evil as they bend to financial and other pressures. Rui’s version of this is extremely literal: she made a deal with the devil to gain the ability to use the CROWDS and launch her app. Except this devil is also a butch gender-noncomforming alien (there is a Lot of other gender going on in this show that I don’t even have time for) and the two of them seem to have an extremely fucked-up relationship. Like any good Faustian bargain or any bad attempt at raising more venture capital without a viable business model, eventually the whole thing comes tumbling down and now you’re doing something terribly fucked up. Rui looks good in a dress shirt, at least!

4. Whatever your abusive partner puts on when she body-snatches you

Of course the center won’t hold, GALAX is subject to a hostile takeover, and to nobody’s surprise, an app with the flimsy promise to change the world for the better can actually be way better at ripping it all apart. I guess the prescient social media parallel here is Facebook being used to propagate Myanmar’s ethnic cleansing, or really anything related to Twitter for the last 5 years. FuckedUpAlienMimic!Rui sure does have cute fangs and a way more refined fashion sense though. I don’t feel like looking into that one.

3. Business....Futch?

I know I’m not done outlining Rui’s arc, but I’m going to skip ahead for a moment to say that Gatchaman Crowds also has a second season! I’m largely ignoring it here because Rui is pretty much stripped of all plot relevance and most of her outfits are less exciting, but I had to include this one. For two episodes, she puts on bright yellow stirrup leggings and an oversized polo shirt, with a cute ponytail to boot. It’s a ridiculous look, but still feels really evocative to me. Sometimes a girl just has to put together completely uncoordinated outfits and see what happens.

Unlike the disruption-focused first season, Gatchaman Crowds season two, which aired in 2015, is about how unfettered technolibertarianism can easily descend into fascism. Goddammit.

2. The Bunny Ears Outfit Again Oh God Who Hurt Her

The weight of the world comes crashing down in Rui’s hands, she’s bruised and beaten in a surprisingly sadistic manner by her alien ex-business partner/girlfriend, and she’s locked out of her own company which is very quickly causing society to fall apart. So what does she do? She puts the bunny dress back on, and wanders the streets again until she has to call upon the powers that be to fix her own mess. It’s silly that the powers that be in this world are superheroes, but I bet you forgot that this was technically a superhero show at this point. Anyways, my extended metaphor is quickly drifting off course, but I guess this is the part where Rui gets grilled by Congress and slapped with an antitrust case.

1. Every Trans Girl Stereotype Rolled Into One

I’ve been incredibly harsh on Rui throughout this writeup, because I’m harsh on the industry she represents, but I’ll make it up with this section. Look at what she’s wearing! A choker, the gothiest Hot Topic dress imaginable, arm warmers, no less than three asymmetric garters not even holding up anything, and the tallest black boots she could find. It’s incredible! If the first outfit on this list was hinting at her relationship to stereotypical trans fashion, then this outfit just screams it. It’s the perfect goth femme hacker look, a style commitment I have no choice but to respect.

Gatchaman is a weird show. After spending most of its runtime thoroughly dunking on tech disruptors for being too optimistic and uncritical, it takes a last-minute turn into Lockean state of nature arguments. It settles on “the masses are inherently good enough that empowering people through technology shouldn’t ever be a problem”, ignoring all the suffering that happened due to Rui’s unwillingness to curate their own technology. I’d give Gatchaman Crowds an average rating, but it’s one of those interesting average ratings where instead of being milquetoast, they tried something and failed and wrote themselves into a corner. But hey, at least there’s an interestingly gendered character!

What your MK OTP says about you

(based on ships I enjoy and/or have seen in passing)

[feel free to rebagel and add—ship hate will mean insta-blockage, for whatever that’s worth! I’m using the ship names I’ve krafted, and ballparking with others. I hope they give ye a giggle. If your ship isn’t here, PLEASE add it! I just went from memory. I love y’all.]

Caged Heat (Liu/Johnny): you’re here for a good time, not a long time—you like good tiddies and the word “angorny” means something to you. There is passion in both kombat and throwing someone’s luggage off a dock. Sparks, I tells ya.

Sonya/Johnny: you appreciate pegging and Cassie Cage (who doesn’t?). You like the story of a jerk with a heart of gold showing his true colors to a woman who is NOT easily impressed—and who also tops.

Shaolin Rowdy Boys (Liu/Lao): you’re here for a good time, not a long time… literally—you crave childhood friends to unexpected lovers and secret banging in temple broom closets! You see the value of a best friend who’ll go to bat for you, even against a 10,000 year old turboprincess, or maybe you ARE that friend.

Jadetana (Jade/Kitana): Kitana bottoms for NO man, but for Jade, she’d do anything. You love that dynamic of unswerving loyalty which secretly hides deep, abiding admiration and maybe a little lust—or a lot! Who knows what freaky shit Edenian gals can get up to in their private time? You. YOU know and may The Elder Gods™ bless you for producing kontent.

Thermodynamic Equilibrium (subscorp): old guy love is just the ticket—you crave the maturity of years, but you don’t want it boring; someone is getting speared because the love is more intense with age. Kombat to lovemaking is your kryptonite.

Warring Exes (Shang Tsung/Raiden): old guy love, but make it fashion—opulence meets chastity in a clash for the ages; you want an emotional roller coaster of “what if” and “why not”, where a mortal may teach a god to love himself, and love being loved… or perhaps not. Tragedy abounds. There’s enemies to lovers and then there’s this roller coaster. Do you really want good things for Raiden? Debatable.

Faraday Cage (Johnny/Raiden): old guy love, again, but this time it’s two dads finding comfort in a time when they need it most—you REALLY just want good things for Raiden and honestly, who doesn’t? Johnny is, decidedly, a good thing and you’ve decided that nicknames like “1.21 gigawatts” and “electric slide” are acceptable forms of foreplay. 

Cassie/Raiden: Faraday Cage 2: Electric Boogaloo—you might be a spite shipper (rock on) or you just dig visible age gap (because you know that every ship including Raiden or Fujin is EXTREME age gap) and you just want Cassie and Raiden to have nice things.

Jacqueda (Jacqui/Takeda): you watched them grow over the course of X and you were smitten. You’re convinced love really can bloom on the battlefield and kombat spouses appeal to you. The idea of Jacqui throwing down with Scorpion for Takeda’s hand appeals to you as well. Same.

Liutana (Liu Kang/Kitana): all those voice lines and character endings mean something to you—in fact, you may have cried; they’ve been fiddling about since 1995, goddammit, you just want good things for them! Is that so much to ask? I say make it happen.

Royal Pain (Shao Kahn/Sindel): the term “power couple” means something OTHERWORLDLY to you—you took one look at this terrible twosome and went “get me a freak like that” but no one was sure which one you meant and that was okay with you. You’re enamored with their grisly Gomez/Morticia aesthetic. They are awful and you LOVE it. Good on you!

Windwolf (Nightwolf/Fujin): you played Aftermath. ‘Nuff said. JK I’m never done. You love the dynamic of middle-aged person and deity falling in love, which is bizarrely specific, but you’ve found your niche goddammit and you’re going to fill it. You appreciate the koncept of the “god” not always being on top of things, or put-together and the idea of a mortal comforting such a being titillates you. The way Nightwolf stands, holding his belt buckle is, you’re convinced, what sold Fujin; it’s also what sold YOU. 

Windserpent (Shang Tsung/Fujin): you played Aftermath and while you didn’t think of it at the time, you’ve seen some REALLY nice art and batted the idea around a while and then settled on “yes this is for me”. The appeal is in the danger, from both sides—a nigh-immortal soul sorcerer and a god. Perhaps you crave a redemption arc, or a corruption arc; either way, this ship has serious potential and you intend to exploit it. How Shang Tsung of you.

Honor among thieves (Erron Black/Kung Jin): you dig age gap, unironic cowboys, and the idea of a couple of people who haven’t always been on the right side of the law finding themselves and their points of strength in the Kourt of an Outworld emperor. 

Kotal/Jade: you only needed a few cutscenes to tell you that these two are MADLY in love; what we lacked in pure kontent (after all, the game didn’t CENTER on them), they made up for in passionate exchanges. You appreciate the dynamic of respect between them and pegging is NEVER off the table.

Kano/Raiden: the aesthetic of filth-meets-purity appeals to you something fierce. The dynamic is unique and you love the potential for a redemption/corruption arc(s?). 

Shang Tsung/Kano: you saw the club scene in MK95 and you went “yes they’re boning”. Whether there is actual affection or not varies with your mood. You love the idea of disaster gay and refined gay coming together to make something dastardly. 

Bi-Hanzo (Bi-Han/Scorpion): you crave old wounds and aches and angst, drowning in memories of what never could have been, and regrets of what might have been prevented. This is an angst fest and it is YOUR cup of tea; drink that shit down, my friend, no sugar, no cream. Have at it.

Sonya/Jax: team mom and dad aesthetic appeals to you on a spiritual level. Someone’s gotta be in charge of this chicken shit outfit. AMERICA.

The Storm (Fujin/Raiden): your aesthetic includes the difficulty of a mortal’s inability to truly connect with and understand immortals and immortals finding themselves and each other in that realization. These entities who have existed since the beginning of all things understand each other better than anyone else could. Shine on.

Sindel/Raiden: this is team parents aesthetic on ‘roids. You’re probably a fan of the brainwashed Sindel theory and you’re of the opinion that only the love of a god is remotely worthy of the ultimate scream queen. Honestly, you’re probably right. Body worship is on your list of goals, right alongside worthy equals in a relationship—kinky. That being said, pegging is always a possibility.

Mileena/Scorpion: your aesthetic is danger—but alongside that is “lost souls finding love” and “shared burdens of infinite AGONY”. You dig angst and the potential for star-crossed lovers, meeting each other’s eyes across the arena of kombat. The idea of Scorpion as a consort (Kahnsort?) for Mileena might also appeal to you.

Rain/Mileena: the song “hatefuck” by the Bravery is probably your jam. You know there’s little love lost between these two, but perhaps kombat will bare their souls in such a way that they find some redeeming quality in the other—and the sex is VICIOUS. That’s what you’re looking for and by The Elder Gods™ you’ve found it.

Fanblade (Kitana/Sonya): you saw MK95 and went “I can fix this”. Kombat futch meets ancient warrior princess futch—this feels like hardcore xenabrielle vibes with a side of GORE because it’s mortal kombat, let’s be real. You feel as if Kitana would be foolish not to claim Sonya as her lover after watching her snap Kano’s neck with her thighs. You would be right.

Taleena (Tanya/Mileena): rebel, rebel—we love a good usurpation, don’t we? Power struggles are hot, both politically and in bed. Your kinks include overthrowing the bourgeoisie (even though you ARE the bourgeoisie) and seizing the means of production (meaning the flesh pits, probably). 

Shaiden (Shinnok/Raiden): your motto is fight and fuck—or enemies to lovers, for the more refined shipper. Maybe you prefer enemies AND lovers. Go hard or go home, I say.

Nightwolf/Erron Black: old guy love, but make it reformed criminal. The appeal here is that, very likely, someone has to convince someone else that he really IS out of the woods, to show him his true worth, and maybe give him some time off from the violent grind of kombat life.

Kablam (Kabal/Erron Black): black dragon buddies! In the depths of mercenary work, there isn’t time for love, not really, so you want to see these two assholes find some semblance of peace and pleasure amidst illicit activities. Whether or not Kano knows depends on what kind of quickie sex appeals most to you.

Jacquass (Cassie/Jacqui): military lesbians, friends to lovers, BFFs, this ship has it all. You’re in love with the idea of a couple of people who grew up together, suffered and fought and bled together, stumbling away from a battlefield, carrying each other and finding that perhaps they can keep carrying the other, maybe forever.

Kotal/Erron: The idea of watching someone go from bad to the bone, to actually CARING about something other than himself thrills and excites you. That kind of loyalty can’t be bought, even though you keep pretending that’s all it is. Very tsundere.

Kano/Kabal: “he’s a lowlife, piece of shit scumbag; you’re gunna love ‘im.” Nuff said.

[love-a-little-less-archived]

Random ask because why not: would you say ur a butch, femme, futch, or none of the above?

Probably butch!!! I'm not like, full butch, but I'm definitely more butch than anything else. Like, if I had the option to, I would present myself as butch. Leather jacket, side shave, studded boots, you know, that shit. I don't really consider myself super feminine or masculine though. I do wear jewelry and makeup, but I'm not a fan of skirts and dresses. So not super butch, but definitely more that than anything

Thanks for the ask ❤️❤️
