Thanks Bit, you have put into words my feelings and struggle with questions around this topic -- I can't name what makes me feel femme. I just am. What makes me feel like myself? Same question. Just living.
Now, I can name things I appreciate, that make me feel "at home" or joyful, like other femmes or butch appreciation of me -- but I would still be femme and be myself without that. And that can be Homespun Femme or Glitter Femme or Biscuit-n-Gravy-Hair-Extensions Femme or Snark Femme....all are perfectly my true self if I AM being true to myself. No one else can make me more or less (but they can add happiness that they are in my life!)
