[Bard]

To all the wonderfull Femmes who have posted in all your beautiful glory each amazing and touching in your own way and y'all brighten up the world simply by being you all strong proud and Femme. Thank each of you for sharing and for just being who you are

[SassyLeo]

I'm a Queer Femme. A Leo. An only child.

I am smart. More life smart and less book smart.
I'm a space cadet, sometimes an airhead and apparently off in my own little world. Maybe because instead of being punished as a child, I was told to "find something constructive to do".
I'm fierce when I want and need to be and quiet and soft when it feels right. Sometimes within a matter of minutes.
I'm unknowingly sensitive yet a crazy hard shell to break. I'm a strong boundary holder which often looks like lack of compassion.
I'll call you on your shit, sometimes whether you want to hear it or not. I'm blunt and honest and mostly in the best ways.
I make my own decisions and will ask for your input when I need it. I'm not the best at admitting I've made mistakes but I do it. Sometimes more than I'd like. But I never regret anything. Really.
I'm a loud talker, a louder laugher and have been known to watch people because I am fascinated about how others operate in the world.
I am opinionated and sometimes judgmental. I have feelings about fucked up stuff that people do. I don't like drama, but I like hearing about others'.

My dearest friends get to see my weak parts, my pains, my sad and my deepest happy.

I'm fiercely loyal to my MAC Rebel lipstick and Benefit Bad Gal Lash. They make me feel powerful and strong, showing the outside how I feel on the inside.

I also rock capri's and tanks and my love's sweatpants and t's. Sometimes I feel sexier in the latter.

I dig camping and hiking and WATERFALLS and love to take photos of random art and nature that catch my eye.

I'm a jewelry wearer, lots of it. Chunky and funky and full of color.

My dark brown curly hair is intertwined with white. Yes, I love my hair. Though I might dye it someday if the white takes over.

I rarely paint my fingernails, but pedicures are a must. Red is best. And even better in a hot pair of open toe wedge heels.

My 5'6" is full of curves; smaller waist, big butt and broad shoulders. I'm sexy in an unassuming way.

I'm Beautiful. My genes did me well. I have my papa's blue eyes and lashes, I am told are my best feature.

I'm a small town girl who grew up in a town that became a city.

I like to be courted. I like attention. I appreciate being adored, but am not a fragile pedestaled figurine. I can open the door for you just as well as you can open it for me.

I'm physically strong. Independent and self sufficient.

I am sometimes kinky. This does not mean my I am a bottom or top or sub. I can be all or none.

I'm a survivor of sexual abuse. And some fucked up relationships. But I don't give up hope for healing.

I'm the product of 2 queer parents. Raised in the 70's and 80's. My queer is deep. Like blood, sweat and tears deep. It shaped me.

My Femme is Queer. A Dyke. A Fat Femme. A Fierce Femme.

[The_Lady_Snow]

I am a proud latina.

I am perverted, nasty, kinky, sexual and Queer.

I am sad, cause I miss that little boy so much.

I am a survivor, an advocate and ally.

I am funny, smart and full of life.

I am in pain.

I am loud, opinionated, secure and scared at times.

I am love, loved and loving.

I am curves, jiggles and dips.

I am a high school drop out, self educated and intelligent.

I am mexican.

I am a bastard child.

I am holder of they key to his collar, I am holder of one's future collar.

I am phenomenal.

I am lover of pussy.

I am happy, calm, and at peace.

I am here if and when you ever need me.

I am Femme

[Tucker]

i am a refraction of myself.
i am bending all over with light and intensity.
my form can barely hold me still.
i wear my body as subtly as wax wears her candle.
beauty is only my perfume.
i have blue-breasted sky in my eyes.
i sing continuous, like a red-breasted robin.
i linger in the frivolous places of stillness and symphony.
the night pours on me like an isolated shower of inspiration.
i listen with the ears of a weeping willow forest.
i am lost to a delicate haze of pretty little details.
feasting on little intuitions.
spiraling into lucid dream.
a muse, touching the edge of intensity.
i am a collection of lost lovely things.
i am sympathy for psychos.
i am a reluctant angel.
i bloom nocturnal.
i am a girl.
i am a new woman.
i am a concoction of kisses and injury,
proportions constantly in flux.
i dip into wax and fantasy.
i suffer from inclinations toward deviant places
and dark angels.
i dwell on the fringes.
teetering on the last brink of sanity.
standing on the edge of reason.
violently aware of myself.
leaning out of this skin for just a taste
of indulging the gloom.
my words ring of nighttime melodies.
my voice is shed in tears of brittle starlight,
when i am alone.
desperation is silence,
arching backwards through the years.
my lips wear smudges of memory.
shades of surrender.
motion is heavy,
vacillating wildly beneath these tender feet.
i am a high contrast.
so fragile and so immense.
waves of complexity stir my universe.
i place possession above fear. always.
constellations of memory guide my way.
my recollection has a forgiving disposition.
i believe in the alchemy of love
to turn steel hearts golden.
steel is for wing-tips only.
i believe in modern romance.
and i still believe in fairytales,
after all.... I am Femme!

I am Femme

My femme identity is marked by death-defying logic that embraces a kaleidoscope of many social constructions.

I revel in all that I am able to learn about: by either listening to or reading up on a plethora of subjects.

The more I know, the better I feel. I learn in different ways – mostly I learn by observation – noticing complexity in the way people choose to behave or communicate and because of my ardent desire to understand as fully as possible, I’ve spent most of my life in the background – not desiring foreground recognition.

I don’t need anyone to validate who I am.

I am also a mother to two sons and while it would seem that the male side of the population longs to oppress and dress down female bodied human beings, I will abandon my love for being in the background and will come out of the woodwork, with an undeniable force, and return your egregious soul to the place it belongs.

I’m a lover.

I’m a fighter.

I’m quiet; yet when I have something to say, I make sure I am heard.

I’m loyal, but when I discover non-reciprocal, inequitable relationship processes, I will cut you out of my life.

I am a survivor of many forms of abuse. I believe in checking up on my own boundary systems – because I tend to welcome exploration and discovery of things I have no knowledge of. Mostly, I feel that the wiggle room I allow for my boundaries is managed judiciously.

If I choose to share my power with you, I expect you to honor my power, as I will yours.

I like to pamper myself - my indulgences, proclivities include: wearing makeup (or not), keeping my hair coiffed beautifully, keeping my hands and feet well taken care of, and sleeping as long as I feel led to do so because I do tend to require lots of sleep – especially if I have had to stay up for long periods of time to get my duties accomplished.

I am sensual. My appetite for having sex still exists – I crave closeness, reciprocal levels of intimacy – before my sexual fire can be lit and rage out of control. My Femme being is of a Queer orientation.

I desire and require your full attention.

I am intelligent and my range of intelligence will surprise you.

I have been my best friend and confidante for years now and I care deeply for myself and how I am treated.

I am sensitive.

I can also be heartless, cold, insensitive and unfeeling, when the occasion calls for me to be this way.

I am passionate.

I am filled with compassion.

I am filled with humility by my lack of perfection and ability to be perfect.

My Femme perfection is a potent elixir. Not everyone is able to tolerate the taste of me.

But I am loved. I do love. I am liked for who I am. I am also disliked and I am okay with that.

I’m an assessor and I evaluate and process at a relentless pace. I’m also known to shut down and wall out distraction, noise that keeps me from hearing what I need to hear.

I’m fearless.

I’m not afraid to die. I have died on numerous occasions. I choose to live in the present moment.

I am known to wonder and revel in that which is deliciously intoxicating.

I am artistic – I love to draw, sing, play music, listen to music, paint, create sculpture – I appreciate art in all the forms I have discovered and enjoyed.

I love to cook foods and prepare sumptuous meals.

I am reserved, sometimes shy. I am highly expressive under the right conditions. I am very communicative. I am expert in my field of communication.

I surprise myself and others.

I am a precious gift, unwrap me with care.

Adore me, cherish me, and recognize me as the Goddess I am, for I am: Femme.

[Sachita]

I am a typical Taurus with Capricorn rising. I can be stubborn, articulate and determined. When I set my sights on something, a dream or goal, wild horses can't keep me from it. I am calculating and sometimes that works against me.

I am naturally feminine. A Goddess type woman connected to the earth and need nature to feel grounded and alive.

I went from ultra high fru-fru to basic natural. It was a transition of being comfortable with who I am as a woman and not having to make anyone happy other then myself. I am a comfortable woman/femme who dresses to please my mood and not because I have to prove how feminine I am.

I am a shit kicking, opinionated, fiery femme that is capable, wise and secure. I know who I am, what I want and what I don't want.

Like Gemme, I'm bumping my post too.

I have revised mine (from two years ago) a tiny bit,
but my list today is an exact representation of who I am.

Yours Truly,

Seven years ago, on May 28th @ approximately 4:30 in the afternoon, I wrote about the Femme in me. Everything I wrote about describes me in ways that still hold true today.

[Mrs. Strutt]

As femme, I am...

I am many kinds of mother...to my child, to my husband when hy needs it, to my friends when the world isn't such a kind place. I have a nurturing soul, yet with a spine of steel that demands those around me stand on their own two feet.

I am by turns gentle and fierce...a Type C personality who can morph into Type A so fast, the only thing you see is the subatomic particles left by my dust.

I am quiet and proper in public and among those whom I do not know well, but loud, funny and casual in the privacy of my own home or when with my friends.

I am fiercely protective of my privacy and extremely picky about whom I invite into my life.

I love my friends with the same passion as I love my family and I am loyal to a fault. When I choose to love you, I love you for life.

I am a bundle of contradictions. I am a Cancer--emotional, nurturing and sensitive--but have both Libra rising and Libra as my moon sign--balanced, intellectual and practical.

I am a quiet soul who generally dislikes conflict and discord. If, however, you hurt someone dear to me, you will be screaming for mercy long before I finally choose to stop your bleeding.

I am a member of the same beauty industry that holds up thin, blonde and straight-haired as the ideal beauty standard. And yet I teach straight women how to love and embrace what is natural and glorious about themselves without resorting to false artifice...and send them off into the world with the same shoulders-thrown-back, head-held-high, "fuck you" switch of their hips we femmes have owned throughout the millennium.

I am the perfect femme for my own place in this world.

[Tucker]

I am an Orchid. I may seem delicate but I am stronger than most think.

[Zora77]

I know how to use a skillet and a power drill.

I am sweet and soft, and with 5’4”/120 pounds I have yet to meet a butch who can take me in a wrestling match.

I scream like a girl when see a spider and find alligators, snakes and rats quite interesting.

In tango I am a devoted follower and can lead almost every other dance.

I recently discovered that I like the way I look in a dress and I would not get caught dead in heels.

I want a daddy to protect me and rule my world and I call the shots in other aspects of my life - and am good at it.

I am a goat and a dragon.

I’m independent, loyal, caring, inquisitive, feisty, passionate and strong.

I’m a wickedly wonderful femme … and modest

[The_Lady_Snow]

I

AM

Daddy.....

[JustJo]

I am the femme still discovering myself...learning that the person I have always been is truly just fine...even with my many contradictions.

I am quiet and frequently shy...but laugh loud enough to be heard down the block, and am happy to talk on stage in front of hundreds.

I am analytical and intelligent...but scattered and sometimes struggle with the simplest things.

I am a doting and indulgent mother who puts my son's well-being first in all things. I am the almost-stepmom who looks forward to putting my partner's son in the same place in my life and heart.

I am loving, accomodating, taking care of those I care about.

I have infinite patience with the young, the old, the sick, and those who are doing their best....no matter how little that may be. I have no patience at all with stupidity, cruelty, hypocrisy, arrogance and posers.

I have an incredibly long fuse and am very slow to anger...the bomb at the end, however, is large. You don't want to let it get there.

I endure. Growing up in a narcissistic household I was taught that I did not matter, that my needs didn't count, and that my purpose was only to provide for others. I have learned that these are lies. That took time...and some difficult experiences. I had to sit at the bottom looking up to see the truth.

With most people, I trust quickly but not deeply. I truly trust two people on this earth...and am not related by blood to either of them.

I take people at face value and give them the benefit of the doubt...until they prove otherwise. Once someone shows me that I cannot trust them...then I am done. I have a long memory...for both kindness and cruelty.

I love peace, compromise, quiet and order.

I have a silly side...which I indulge. I turn 8 years old the minute I walk through the gates at DisneyWorld. I like that.

I love the beach more than any other place on the planet. I enjoy simple things...going for a drive, flea markets, going to the movies, bbq in the backyard.

I love to travel...and look forward to exploring more of the world with my partner.

I cook, bake, love polka dots and kitten heels...I am Betty Crocker with an MBA.

I am affectionate...I love to hug, kiss, dance barefoot in the kitchen.

I work hard, but not fast...and I achieve my goals. I am persistent. I am stubborn, opinionated, pushy and...if you read this far you already know...I'm wordy.

[ButterflyKisses]

I am the femme who will create a five star meal yet light the dish towel on fire because I wasn't paying attention.

I am a lover not a fighter, but mess with someone I care about and I will take you OUT. Game Over. End of Story. No Sequel.

I am an insomniac.

I will take apart the toaster and anything else that catches my interest to see how it works.

I am an adreniline junky.

I am the Energizer Bunny.

I am lazy.

I am beautiful and fierce whether rocking a mini dress and stilettos or torn t-shirt and sweats.

If you carry my bags, it's because I let you.

I am the angel you see on the street in a pink sundress and the devil tied the bed at night.

I wear my heart on my sleeve. No matter how hard I try to pry it loose and return it to the safety of my chest, it will not budge.

I am a safe harbor.

I am a hurricane.

I've been to hell, yet still managed to keep my rose-colored glasses.

I am stronger than I look. Though not as strong as I act.

Trouble happens when I get bored.

I am smart and self-educated.

I am a walking bundle of contradictions.

[BarbaraRyan]

I joined after the last post, so I hope it's okay that I add my self-description.

As far as labeling my sexuality, I use the terms Femme and Lipstick Lesbian. I like them both because they are complex and express two aspects of me - my femininity and my love of women.

I am very feminine in appearance - I wear make-up and love red lips. I currently have short hair, but wear it in a gamine style. (An ode to Audrey). I prefer wearing skirts and tops, but like dresses that flatter my hourglass figure. I wouldn't say I am modest, but I don't wear revealing clothes. But I wear loose t-shirts pants and boxers when cleaning or gardening.

I like Victorian Lesbian fiction and vintage erotic photos, along with reading Anne Rice and Jane Austen. I drink tea and collect tea pots/tea for one sets. I love vintage hats, clothing, and jewelry. I like lots of pillows on the bed and fluffy comforters where I snuggle with my cats while listening to Sarah Brightman, Sarah McLachlan, Dido, and Nora Jones. I watch British comedies, Bones, the L Word, and Arrested Development. I enjoy musical and try to see them when I can. My favorite is The Phantom of the Opera.

I am really spiritual. I pray to the Goddess and meditate - a lot. I study Her many different guises - such as Mother Mary, Medusa, Athena, and Tara. I don't worship a male deity. I'm a witchy woman with Native Guides and have an affinity to Shamanism and Native Culture. I'm a Reiki healer, tarot reader, and truth teller. I read the stories of the Goddess and watch Pushing Daisies, Moonlight, Buffy, Charmed, Bewitched, and Xena.

I collect crystals and study their uses and properties. I love plants and flowers and have several gardens. I hope to be a Certified Master Gardener one day. I like cooking vegetarian and vegan and have a number of cookbooks. I study herbalism and make herbal medicines. My favorite herbs and flowers are in the mint family and include roses, mints, and lavender. I am a ginger addict! I have several chronic illnesses and blog about living with them.

I love learning and constantly read. I have degrees in PR and Writing Arts. I have worked as a Freelance Writer and in Acquisitions for a Bookseller. I'm interested in Law and plan to go back to school to get my Paralegal Certificate. I enjoy classical studies and want to see the new Cleopatra exhibit at the Franklin Institute.

I also have a tomboy side. I enjoy watching Professional Wrestling and still attend live events. I've been to Wrestlemania. I love old NWA, Attitude Era WWE, and ECW. The ECW Arena in South Philly is one of my favorite places. I like Owen Hart, Shawn Michaels, Chyna, John Morrison, Awesome Kong, Tommy Dreamer, Chris Benoit, and RVD. I collect wrestling DVD's and have a nice little collection. I also love horror. I'm a huge Clive Barker fan and love his Books of Blood. I enjoy Friday the 13th the Series, Dexter, Saw, Hellraiser, Nightmare on Elm Street, Dead Silence, and the Evil Dead. I even have a blog dedicated to examining the horror genre.

Sorry if that's a bit long. Something I like about this thread - is that everyone her has defined herself and has taken the time to look within honestly. It's important, along with not letting others define who or what we are. When we do it, we give away a bit of our power.

[Lady_Wu]

I am femme. Strong in my weakest places. Strong enough take care of myself. Strong enough to relinquish control.
I am femme to your Butch. An old-fashioned, dress-wearing, 50s femme. I am proud to be seen on your arm in a world that does not know who or what we are. I am the one who hears you cry when your family/your job/your world rejects you for being who you are. I am the one who knows your fierce determination not to let them break you. I one who walks with you past the stares of the people who would like to knock you down. I am the one who walks into the lesbian bar, you in your Butch attire made more obvious by my feminine dress. I am your partner in the Dance.
I am femme who would kill for my femme friends. We have been there for each other in the gentle rain of the good times and the thunderstorms of the bad. We have cried on each others' shoulders, laughed at each others' stories, talked for hours on the phone. We have seen each other through the mind-bending of initial love and the heartbreak of its ending. We are the ones we turn to in our joy and our hurt. Who else but a femme really knows me!
I am femme. I amable to live happily alone yet run happily into your arms when you get home. I can open my own doors, carry my own groceries, and unclog my own sink. I can also let you do those things for me! I can ward off the creep next door who leers at me each time we pass. I can let you run him off for me. I can run my own life with ease. I can give over that control to you.
I am femme. I have looks to kill with an attitude to match. I have my own sense of style, with dresses past my calf, librarian glasses, and funky little flat shoes. I can walk past you in a bookstore (my natural habitat) and make you look once, twice, then you're following me around the store. I can be found in the GLBT section looking for that odd Butch/femme title or in the Philosophy section with my nose in the book of an obscure Chinese Author. I can accidentally drop my books at your feet and have you pick then up and shyly ask me to join you for coffee. I know that you know that was no accident.
I am femme. I can shop for hours with a femme friend for just the right purse. I can lecture a class on Early Greek Skepticism. I can simplify my life til I own very little. I can cook a vegetarian jambalaya and buttermilk pie dinner that has those cooked for coming back for thirds. I can make the perfect cup of coffee.
I am all of these things and infinitely more. I am a lady, after all. And a lady is so much more than than mere words can convey. And has so many more talents than words can tell. I am femme.

I'm probably one of the most patient women You'll ever meet until I'm not.
From my Mom, I learned that patience. I miss my Mom.
My daughter's death taught me just how much inner strength I have.
I'm a Democrat. I hate injustice on every level.
I like chick flicks and Star Wars.
I've worn perfume and a baby's throw~up.
I'm Femme.
Give me a magazine and I can make a collage.
Give me a pencil and paper and I'll write some erotica.
Give me a cup of sugar, flour, milk and a can of peaches and I'll make You a cobbler.
Give me a spanking and I'll follow You around forever.
I'm Femme.
I like make~up, but don't wear much.
I like earrings, but I forget to wear them sometimes.
I like dresses, but I'm not opposed to wearing slacks.
I like sequins and denim. (But not at the same time...)
I like heels, but I can't wear them anymore. (I choose comfort.)
I love socializing and attention, but I appreciate my solitude.

I'm Femme. And I just scratched the surface...................because that's the way THIS Femme just IS. The rest, You have to discover on Your own.
