I do not believe that butches are a "dying breed" (what a phrase!).
There have always been masculine women and there always will be. There always have been the transgendered. There will always be what the Native Americans call the "two spirited".
Any search engine can bring up images of butches from the time that photography was invented and photographers were able to take pictures!
How someone is born is different than whatever role either society or a cohort thrusts upon us.
We may even chose to have roles! (Some femmes may want to be a 1950's housewife!)
There will always be butches and femmes.
How we may chose to live our lives, is something else entirely.
