I wish butch n femme balls existed. Not to b a fucking sap n a massive dyke but wow. Ugh even. Just wanna wear a gown n stilettos n have my honey greet me w a bouquet before we leave n we wear matching or complimentary jewelry n spend hours on my hair and makeup to impress. N then when we get there my honey will spin me around the room for a brief dance before grabbing something to drink, wine for me n whiskey for her, as we chat w other dykes n celebrate butchfemmeness. Or whatever

Saw a post about working class butches in physical labour jobs and wanted to make my own, so: I love you butches who do childcare or early education. I love you butch nurses. I love you butch house cleaners and janitorial staff. I love you service industry butches. I love you butches who do sex work. I love you working class butches who do “feminine” jobs you are cool as hell

I think I have a controversial thing to say: I love and recommend (have recommended) Stone Butch Blues as much as the next person, but there's other books from and about butches that get slept on because people only know Stone Butch Blues

Lily got kisses. Lily didn’t want kisses. I burst her personal bubble but she forgave for a bit of scrambled egg.

I truly wish I could get cis people and non-butches to understand how inherent transness/butchness/gender-nonconformity is for so many of us, specifically related to how visible it can be even when we do our damndest to hide it.

My parents suggested I detransition/try to appear “womanly” because it’s getting really dangerous where I live, and I’m just like…there is no world in which I can make that work. I was getting called a lesbian and a dyke as a teen before I even figured out I was gay. I was shoved up against a wall in college and sexually assaulted in public when I was in the process of coming out and presenting very femininely, specifically because I was a lesbian. Even when I spent hours playing with makeup because it was kind of fun (because I did wacky styles that make me think I was using it as a drag thing more than anything) I still stuck out next to cishet girls.

I’m not saying I can’t do things to improve my safety, but I have been butch/trans/gender-nonconforming my entire life. I cannot undo that from the fabric of who I am; even if I cover it up, the people who want to do harm can typically still pick up on it.

A queen sized bed with no queen to lay beside me... homophobia strikes again 😔

"I'm too scared to ask her out"

Of course you are. Because she's gorgeous and funny and smart, and looking at her makes you feel all nervous inside. 

But you know what? Asking a woman out gets easier when you remember that she is just a human being. She has wants and needs and flaws, like you. She's neither a fairy or a siren, but a human person—like you. 

You're also a person, and not the ugliest or most terrible one alive like you tell yourself to get out of confessing your feelings. You're imperfect, as is everyone else, but you're equally worthy of love and you have a lot of good qualities to bring to a relationship.

And if you take the leap of faith only for her to say no? Well, she's allowed to do that. She has the right to say no to you, or anyone. Maybe she isn't ready for a relationship, or maybe she just doesn't like you that way. It hurts, but it doesn't say anything about your value as a romantic partner. 🤷🏻

Rejection is a normal part of life; Don't let it stop you from living.
