I would get an insensitive vibe from her choice of words.
Even 40 years ago (for me) that word was a trigger for all that I am not.
In this tiny paragraph , she says it 11 times.
(To me) that cancels out the good words she chose like swagger and cock.
The disconnect between sir and girl is fucking enormous. helllooooo?

I would think that she does not know the ==>first thing about butches to begin with.

Great, pal! Please don't waste the time of Femmes who appreciate complexity. That leaves them more available for feminist butches like me, who laugh at the sexist world we live in. I'm hot for Femmes who can negotiate that oppression without asking us butches to be reflect the binary back to them. I'm hot for Femmes who can call me any word that makes them feel sexy and want to get with me. I'm hot for Femmes who often suffered because of not being seen as "girly enough" because they were strong and independent. My "butchness" grew from my girlhood. I'm neither ashamed of it, nor diminished by culturally common references to it.
