tumblr "lesbian elder" butches that are never older than 25: baggy loose clothes arent masc. flowers arent masc. open toed shoes arent masc. bright colors arent masc unless theyre boy colors i mean masc colors. any fashion style that isnt mine isnt masc unless its in a black n white photo of a lesbian and if it is then you arent matching the look right so its still not masc.

butches in real life: hey hows it goin

#rue.text #i still feel viscerally disgusted w my lesbianhood after spending time in online lesbian spaces #bc they were almost all run by the same genre of know-it-alls who never read a book in their life #who insisted that they knew lesbian experiences more than everyone else bc they realized their sexuality at 12 #and they had the most fucked up gatekeeping of butch/femme bc they held everyone to the same spectrum of masculinity n feminity #ignoring all cultural/religious/medical/social/racial circumstances that make the spectrum really complicated #they were fucked to butches they were fucked to femmes and god they fucked me over in regards to sexuality sm #i wasnt femme enough for them bc im a hobbyist mechanic and my irl friend group was mostly cishet guys #idk im rambling but to this day i avoid online lesbian spaces like the plague
