Hi Bit.
I've read your post intro twice, and I am trying to discern if you are speaking of todays butch, or the butch of another era. I'm old enough to have noticed a sort of transition or change in the appearance of SOME butches.
I am also thinking about how butches appeared to me, when I was a teen and fighting for an identity. Social class and seemed to be in the picture. In Los Angeles at that time, I could spot a working class butch a mile away. Hair, dress, attitude. The gym teacher was also a dead give away. Hair, no make up, no dress, sport preferences, etc., which were the superficial things that alluded to gender at that time.

So, I would ask, is this a story of the past or current day? Then, I could answer better from my location.

Thanks, Bit, for being authentic. This sounds interesting. I'm glad that you don't wish to commit a cape myrtle caper!
