Friendship Circles: Gender Differences in How We Do It?
So, I'm curious about something.
Ive had this discussion with a lot of my girlfriends over the years and this even came up on the Dash site a few times way back when. Do you think that Femmes, Butches, Transguys, and Transwomen build friendships differently? Namely, I remember way back in the day that Daddy Rhon made a comment about how Butches were "little islands unto themselves" when it came to friendships. I'll put a poll up to see if we can tease this out a little better but Im curious as to what your perceptions are around how we build friendships. Maybe there truly are no differences in how we do it with relation to gender? For example, do you feel like Femmes generally connect with their girlfriends more often through text or phone? Do Butches really "hate" the phone in general (talking tongue in cheek here)? Give me a few minutes for the poll and I'll come back with more thoughts... POLL ALLOWS FOR MULTIPLE SELECTIONS!
