Butch Femme Planet - View Single Post - "Butch" and "Femme" - Truly Antiquated Terms or More Marginalization?

Medusa · 11-22-2009, 12:07 PM

There has been some discussion on the "other" site about whether or not the terms "Butch" and "Femme" are "antiquated" terms. Im curious as to what people think about this.
There were some thoughts about how the terms dont feel "accessible" to younger folks, folks of color, etc.

Thoughts?
