			Seen something funny/cute/sexy/insightful about butches? Wanna share but can't find somewhere specific to post it? Was there an excerpt from a tumblr post that made you go "yeah!" while the rest of it made you go "meh"? Did you see an image or meme specific to the butch experience that made you smile, laugh, or think? Random butch-related screenshots rolling around on your phone with nowhere to post them? Send 'em here!  What this is for: images, videos, and text about and for butches, miscellany about butches that doesn't really fit anywhere else (appreciative, not critical), general love found around the web for the butches in our lives What this is not for: images of butches, personal one or two liners to the effect of "i love butches! so hot" [yes, but that's not the point  ], things unrelated to butches or the butch experience (I searched and searched and didn't see a thread that quite matched this description, so forgive me if I just missed it.)  3, 2, 1... GO!

			Back in the day I incorporated the *Butch Sightings * migration chart.  What was done was a femme would tag a butch on the ear with a tracking device so we could study their migration patterns. It basically lit up with these sightings, mostly at Trader Joes, the Subaru dealership or in a campground. A femme could nonchalantly *run* into a butch by predicting their whereabouts.  After much study and research, it was determined that butch is completely unpredictable, so we have been reduced to just using the 2x4 method. That’s some serious appreciation. |

			i appreciate the journey of every butch. i love hearing how they came into their own, and want them to know i appreciate the struggle. While us femmes have our own battles, butches have different ones, and it can’t have been an easy path. |

			https://kisforkiah.wordpress.com/201...ating-a-butch/ https://femmeonamission.com/2011/08/...reciation-day/ “I love butch girls. Girls with slick, shiny, barbershop haircuts, trimmed so short your fingertips can barely grip it. Girls with shirts that button the other way. Girls that swagger … Girls who get stared at in the ladies’ room, girls who shop in the boys department, girls who live every moment looking like they weren’t supposed to. Girls with hands that touch me like they have been exploring my body their entire lives … It is the girls that get called sir every day who make me catch my breath, the girls with strong jaws who buckle my knees, the girls who are a different gender who make me want to lay down for them.” — Tristan Taormino
