Breaking it down - describe the Femme that you are

lettertodaddy · 12-26-2011, 05:58 PM

I'm this kind of femme:

Lipstick and flats. Leaving powder on your collar. Bookish and introverted. Wouldn't know what to do at a nail salon, but knows my way around Sephora/a makeup counter. Jeans and sweaters most of the time, but who loves to get dressed up for a special event (or just a nice dinner). Nappy headed, dreadlocked womanist with trust issues who loves deeply and fiercely. Always puts a camera in your face, because butches are beautiful, and you're the most beautiful of all. Wounded, but ready to love again. Hopeful. Funny. Fiercely loyal.

I am a Queer Femme who Is a Mother, a Grandmother, a Sister, an Aunt, a Daughter and a Friend. I have put my life on the line without a second thought. I have saved lives and held the hand of those whose time was running out. I am strong, compassionate, reserved and passionate. I listen and have strong shoulders. I have common sense and logic. I am an Aquarius. I hide my emotions and will smile and tell you everything is fine even if it is not. My love is pure and given without judgment or expectations. I believe in friendship, communication and laughter. I am sweet with a sassy, mysterious side. I love romance and hand holding; yet, I also like lustful raunchy sex. I am lady who is strong willed and mindful; yet, I have a submissive side. I'm a kisser, a hugger, and a hand holder. I am patient, nurturing and generous, but yet I can also be unemotional and detached. I have a warped sense of humor. I am funny and quite unique. I'm a humanitarian. I am honest and loyal, almost to a fault. In my true German blood, I have a tendency to be stubborn and head strong. I make friends easily but once on my bad side that is where you stay.

I am supportive and respectful. I will try anything twice - this way I can make sure I didn't like it the first time. I am a great defender and protector, not only in what I believe, but to those I love and hold dear. I'm a flirt. I like old movies and football. I like to dress up and dress down and I look good both ways. I wear make up; sometimes I don't, but I always smell good. I love my pedicures and manicures and yet I am not afraid to get messy. I love to cook and bake. I show my gratitude and I am thoughtful and respectful. I love to spoil and pamper'; you will always know where you stand with me. I love to cuddle closely, but yet I enjoy my space. I'm a giver. I'm a lover. I' a helper. I enjoy a good movie, but I also love to read. I love rainy days and hot tea. I love over sized t-shirts and a good cup of coffee. I have a green thumb and a sense for design and décor. I love a clean and tidy home and I enjoy being organized. I always have a camera and a sense of adventure. I am understanding. I am forgiving and I am fair. I'm great at multitasking. I enjoy music of all types. I love Lowe's as much as I love Ulta. I am a Lady, always. I am, Me.

I am the femme that is a port in the storm for the butch that has the courage to go out into an unaccepting, unforgiving world to be exactly who and what they are

I am the femme that is the keeper of butch secrets

I am the femme in whose lap lays a butch who needs solace but will never tell another living soul about that need

The butch card will never be revoked by me.

I am strong and at times, weak; brave and at times, fearful; courageous and at times-not-so-much

I am an every-woman and at the same time, uniquely me

I am femme

I'm too sexy for my self!

I discovered velcro rollers (reminds me of sponge curlers way back when)
I love what they do for my hair, and no more heat treatment.

Slowpurr · 12-30-2011, 09:21 AM

I know who I am not....which is more poignant at the moment and of course leads to self knowledge.

I am not that femme who can be with someone who says "I can be butch".

I am not that femme who can be with someone who says "I can do that for awhile until we figure out why you are like you are".

I don't wear a dress to our date, but I'll look great.
I'll have spent hours in bath and in front of my garderobe.
My shoes fit to my scarf and I'm wearing jewelry all over.

If you need to be cool - not opening the door for me and divide the bill -
it will be the first and the last date.
I don't need your macho attitude, but i adore you, if you're sure of yourself, charismatic, individual woman with bright eyes and sweet smile.

I've got a responsible position and I hope you found your way in life, too.
Have my flat, my car, my cat and all other stuff I need to life, and want to share with you, if you know, how to value.

I exactly know what I don't want and I'll let you know - in a roundabout way.

I love sarcasm, irony and wordplay - practicing every day.

yes ... and I'm typically Sagittarius - can love 180 percent on one day and will be bored out on the next

I am the femme:
- that languishes without tripping the cognitive triggers of whatever interests me at the moment.
- that would protect you with devotion but you'll have to tell me how. Since you are unique and deserves to be treated just so. And I am a terrible guesser

-who doesn't dress to get attention of lots of eyes. I dress up for the ones I want. For those that holds open the safe space to be girly.
- will expose herself to show you the energy within worth stroking.
- you'll have to catch giggling and dancing when I think you aren't looking. If you want me to be that open about it you'll get to lead the way.
- who blossoms in space and closeness.
- that knows the power in silence but must be reminded.
- who struggles mightily with being vulnerable and needs to be told to let go over and over.

there is more... there's always more.
