Yep.

In the Femme Zone.

There have been butches and FTMs participating in this thread from the very beginning. And femmes participate all the time - and I do mean all the time - in butch threads. A recent example - About Butches Q & A. I am happy for their input.

There are clearly threads that should be femme-only or butch-only. I wasn't aware this was one of them.

Honestly i don’t post in butch zone threads. i appreciate them SO much and enjoy reading but feel its a no post zone for me.

It does bother me when we cross post, i do feel we should have our space on each side. Its just been done so much, it’s just what happens...

It's not a 'never enter' thing, Bully. It's a 'I was excited that this thread was active again' only to see that half the new posts came from outside the femme scope.

You are right. None of us have a place that's 'just ours' anymore, so just ignore my frustration. I can always unsubscribe.

Gemme, I just feel it is a very big double standard, because femmes do post a great deal in the butch zone and it never seems to be an issue, but when butches are in the femme zone feathers fly. I do see threads where it is clearly inappropriate. Anyway, I am happy to not post in the Femme Zone from now on.

Sorry for the derail.

It is true that there are some femmes who post in butch threads all of the time. I have not said anything about it because if someone says something the response you hear is that we are supposed to write in the OP that it is for <gender> only. However, I personally think that if the thread is to ask a certain group a question, only that group should respond.

With that said, after I posted I sort of panicked and went back and read the first post. It looks like it is a thread for stone femmes along with input open to butches (and now skimming through it looks like people of all stripes participated). It noted that it was a thread to be a counterpart of the Stone Butch thread at the time.

Anyway, even though I saw butches were allowed to come in, I felt weird about it, which is why I wrote such a brief response to Bull Dog and girl dee.

Gemme, I think there is another Stone Femme thread out there that only has Stone Femme participants. I am definitely one for support specific group only spaces.
