#pan butch

[lastoneout]

I need my mspec butches to know that there are men out there who will stop fucking breathing when you walk into a room and get a stupid giddy smile when you talk about how you want to look more masc and worship the fucking ground your boots walk on like you need to know this. Don't think you have to give up your masculinity bcs you're in love with a cis guy trust me the right cis guy will fall to fucking pieces bcs he can see the collar of your white tank top when you unbutton your shirt and you deserve NOTHING!! LESS!!

People who think our butchness just goes away when we date men bcs they think no cis man could ever crumble to dust at the sight of a confident butch are WEAK. There is a Gomez Addams out there for you, believe me, if and when you find him you are going to get so full of yourself off the high of his endless compliments that you could fucking kill god.

I love you mspec butches. Don't fucking settle, and flex on the pathetic losers who can't see how incredible it is to have a man love you and your glorious masculinity with his whole goddamn heart.

honestly as a butch, i just gotta say it: that "chivalrous knight in shining armor" crap is objectifying as hell and it's not fun, cute, or validating to apply to us, it provides a burden for us to bear, it makes us paranoid, tired, weary and feel like we're being reduced to a stereotype, or like we're being forced into a mold.

i'm not a knight just because i'm a transmasculine person who looks tough and can theoretically protect femme queers. i'm literally just standing here, being transsexual. i'm not inherently "chilvarous," i don't have any obligation to protect people just because i adopted the label "butch". what if i'm weak? what if the butch needs to be protected? what if the butch is disabled, traumatized, or just scared? i'm a wheelchair user.

why can't femmes protect their butches? why does it always have to be the butch being the chivalrous knight in our yearning posts and poems? why do we have to weave a performative ass narrative of the masculine partner swooping in to protect their defenseless feminine partner? how the HELL is this progressive or subversive at all? this is literally reinventing the binary.

the way the (white) cis lesbian community treats its butches is alienating as all hell. we are not here just to protect other people. we are not inherently protectors. we are not all strong. we are allowed to be weak. we are allowed to be scared. we are allowed to be hurt. we don't HAVE to protect our femmes, if we like femmes at all. not every butch is attracted to femme people in the first place.

butch isn't a lifestyle, it's not a set personality type. it's not a specific set of actions; it's just queer masculinity, that can be expressed by a multitude of queers for a multitude of reasons. it's not one specific set of traits. masculinity is not just found in protecting others and acting tough, it's also in being soft, vulnerable, weak and tender.

just let butches be people, don't turn us into objects before we even get out of the gates. all of this removes the human element of being butch. if the queer community can't afford that, we can't get it from anywhere, because we sure as hell aren't seen as humans by cisheteronormative society.

don't force me to see myself as a knight when i'm the one who needs help just because i'm masculine, or just because i'm a man.

butches need help, too.

not to be That Person but y’all have got to learn to be more normal about bisexual and pansexual characters. this isn’t 2012. women romancing astarion is not the problem, nor is karlach “lesbian coded”. the real problem is y’all’s bi/panphobia stemming largely from homophobic stereotypes

[auggator]

reminder that mspec lesbians and male lesbians and he/him lesbians and trans(masc/neu/fem) lesbians have existed for decades and are fucking amazing lesbians that deserve space in the lesbian community

[everyponie]

sorry but being autistic and "not understanding conflicting labels" is NOT an excuse to put queer labels on your dni. Saying "lesboys dni" is just as bad as saying "trans men dni" or "lesbians dni". You can't pick and chose which queer people you do and don't accept. You either accept us all or accept no one. We are a community. Don't use autism to excuse transphobic and lesbophobic behavior.

Friendly reminder that I love bi, pan, polysexual, and omnisexual butches, and I will fight anyone who tries to police their identity.

FoF rewatch ep 2: WX and PSJ's meet cute gifs

Because I think it deserves a separate post :)

something i need people to understand is that i’m not les4les, dyke4dyke, femme4butch because i don’t want to date bi/pansexuals. i have before, and i will not deny myself doing so again if i meet one that’s truly special to me. this preference i have is not about non-lesbians in any way.

it’s about community. i’m les4les because being a lesbian is an isolating experience in a world that uplifts men and suppresses everyone else. i’m les4les because only a lesbian can truly understand our history, subculture, and struggles. i’m les4les because i crave having a butch on my arm; to feel safe in the arms of someone so outwardly queer in a world where i’ve been told my queerness is something to be afraid of. i’m les4les because i love and support other lesbians. i’m les4les because lesbianism is something to be celebrated

THERE IS LORE TO THE PRIDE STICKERS

That is so cute. What the fuck. I need to them all

TEEHEE OFC I can’t design little characters and NOT give them lore who do you think I am

[genderqueerdykes]

let me validate so called "contradictory" queer identities like bi/pan lesbians and gays, girlboys, fagdykes, male lesbians, female gays, afab trans women, amab trans men and so on for you - your idea of a rigid definition of a concept does not supersede, overwrite or erase the lived experiences of quite possibly millions if not billions of other people. lived experience will always matter more than the definition that sits on a piece of paper, a wiki page, or in your mind, because they are real, and not arbitrary. it's a simple concept to demystify. hope that helps.
