MMM. just saw a video of a 65 year old butch getting a haircut and first of all. Holy shit hello. But second of all - she was so much like me.
I struggle a Lot with whether or not I'm "actually" butch, right? Am I too quiet, too nervous, too soft. If you asked, I'd say it had less to do with being "butch enough" and more to do with butch Fitting me, but if I'm honest, I think it's one in the same here - a fear that I'm not masc enough to call myself that.
But here's someone else, calling themselves butch, being quiet and polite, expressing her frustration at not getting to say what she wants.. like, obviously, it's just the tiniest glimpse of that. But it's something I can look at and feel better about myself with.
#goddyke#ramble#i love and admire butches so much#but am deeply nervous that I'll never be Like That. and i Want to be.#but I'm disabled and anxious and conventional masculinity doesn't Fit in the ways i want it to.#it makes me so happy seeing other people existing in ways they're comfortable with in similar circumstances yknow#we aren't all going to be one waykr another and that's not only okay. but good actually
