Tell us a bit about yourselves!
I'm enjoying the benefits of being over 50 (58 to be precise) including spending a week at Disneyworld for my 50th birthday. There's a freedom that comes with that age that I love. I have retired early. I'm living in a 32' motorhome and plan to travel in the US; I have not seen or spent any time in the eastern parts of the country.

What excites you?
Good conversation, scenery, nature, my extended family, challenges, and the b/f dance of course.

Where are you in this big bold world?
Home base is Albuquerque, New Mexico (USA as it states on our license plates)

What are your hobbies?
Bridge, reading and travel. I also enjoy watching professional football although I don't have a specific team I follow right now. (Thanks dad for teaching me if the offensive line stays down, it's a running play and if they stand up, it's a passing play.) I also enjoy baseball, but I prefer to see that live. (I still don't get the infield fly rule.)

What brought you here?
Google search and the need for community. I came out on-line 21 years ago and it's always been a good place to find friends. There is a dearth of B/F community where I live or perhaps more of a dearth of community altogether except around Pride and benefits.

Hello ButchFemmePlanet,


I'm a Generation X queer woman based in Michigan. It's always nice to have a space to interact with other people in the community. I'm big into music, movies but not as much and I've recently become a television (drama series mostly) fan after years of ignoring it.

I can't say I fall neatly into either a butch or femme category; I think I'm probably more of a sporty type woman. I don't wear make-up and dresses every day but I love shopping and pedicures.

I'm not really good at introductions but I look forward to getting more familiar with this community and engaging in some cool conversations.

Hi, everyone!

I'm a 37-year-old femme, originally from the Detroit area, now living in North Carolina, not far from the Virginia border. I came out as a lesbian about a year ago after years of considering myself bisexual. A connection with a butch woman totally changed what I understood about who I was and what I wanted. I'm single now, but there's still so much to learn about this community and this culture. I am really looking forward to getting to know more people, and gain a better understanding of what it means to identify this way.

Hello all,

I just got approved to post.

I am a 44 year old single stone butch. I am excited to have found this forum, since I have not found much in the way of community here in the southern US.

My work is pretty intense, but thankfully leaves me with a good deal of time for travel and photography, my main hobbies. I’m also counting down the days to mlb spring training; geeking out on domestic and international politics; and like to be outside, especially in a national park.

My life is wonderful. I’m just missing a wonderful femme with whom to share it.

I look forward to corresponding with you all.

Hi. It's been a very long time. I was once Oregonbluebelle but I have lived in Washington for more than 10 years now so It just didn't fit. A lot has changed for me. I've been through it to say the least. Looking for friends is what brought me back. See you around.

Hey babes, I'm G from New York. I'm in my mid twenties and I'm a part time flight attendant and student. My girlfriend and I are in a committed open relationship but I've seen about all there is to see in terms of the butch/femme scene where we live so I figured I'd venture out onto the internet for hotties to flirt with and sage lesbians to gain advice and perspective from.
And all y'all are lookin like snacks!!:eatinghersheybar:

Hi everyone-

new here- I have been reading the forums and checking out the general stuff. I am kind of shy so I just thought I would say a quick hello.

Thank you and I hope everyone is having a good weekend. If there is anything you want to know please ask.
