Hello!! I was looking for non-fiction books of butches and femmes that mention bisexual butches and femmes too! I guess that's a very specific thing and difficult thing to ask for but I was hoping if you knew some? In the end, I'll take any and all butch femme non-fiction books you know of please! 👉👈💖

hello! okay so don’t wanna promise bisexuality in all of these because that’s tricky to do without having read each cover-to-cover*

that said, we do have some recs! I’m going to split this up two ways;

Non-fiction (not memoir)

Butch is a Noun by S. Bear Bergman

Persistance: All Ways Butch & Femme eds. Ivan Coyote & Zena Sharman (& it’s precursor, Persistent Desire: a butch-femme reader although sadly it’s not available as an ebook for us to purchase)

The Life & Times of Butch Dykes by Eloisa Aquina

Boots of Leather, Slippers of Gold by Elizabeth Lapovsky Kennedy & Madeline D. Davis

& one essential we haven’t gotten around to buying yet: Female Masculinities by J. Jack Halberstam

Non-fiction (memoir)

Burning Butch by R/B Mertz (also in audio)

Pregnant Butch by A.K. Summers

Rust Belt Femme by Raechel Anne Jolie

Hijab Butch Blues by Lamya H. (also in audio)

& before anyone asks Stone Butch Blues is NOT in our collection, but that’s because it’s available for free, as a pdf, directly from Leslie Feinburg’s website

#*alas the stereotype that librarians have read every book in the collection #or get paid to read #couldn’t be further from the truth!#but fortunately that actually means that there are far too many queer books out there for us to have read them all!#a fact which I for one #am grateful for #queer liberation library #qll #asks #<3 #queer books #thanks for asking!#butches #book recs

Three of Emily O’Leary’s hand-hooked dog rugs (@emiliaoleary); bottom two photos were shot by Bucky Miller for an installation in his Wraymour&Flanigan project (strongly recommend seeing the full installation photos!)

one day you’ll yearn for the person you are now, to tell them, "hey, look, it turned out to be okay" and "i’m so grateful you’ve held on" and "things just worked out somehow". you’ll want to hold their hand and give them the wisdom that the future is actually better, and you know it because you’re living it. but you can’t reach through time like that. the only way to bridge the gap between the you of today and the you who’s doing better, is to hold onto the hope that they exist.

#late night clarity if u will #staring at a blank wall thinking about who i used to be #and wishing i could comfort her like this #i'm so grateful to her for staying alive and allowing for me to live #as i am #the healing (starts here)#growth in the self #comfort kindness family

Did everyone see George after Singapore?? Those eyes?? Hello Mr. Fallen Angel?? I am a sucker for a man who looks like he hasn't slept in weeks and has raggedly red eyes I just had to paint him (sorry for the heat exhaustion George but this was a blessing a true blessing)

#f1 #formula 1 #george russell #gr63 #fallen angel #singapore gp 2024 #singapore grand prix #I feel for the drivers but I am always grateful for the sweaty photos afterwards #my art
