No we are not. But many things have changed in this community I want to say I am an older butch (58) There are now many more labels. Another thing that has also happened alot of butches including myself date other butches or tombois. As well as femmes dating other femmes. I wish all of you luck in finding that butch but they are out there.

Yes.. I think all butches are in the US!

I find it so hard to meet someone in the UK, and I am in the capital!

I hear you Sarahwho! The butches who may be where I am are hiding, too. Maybe it's because my state doesn't have large metro areas. The three major cities here seem to absorb the gay population. We're all well accepted but we can't find each other as a community---only at major GLBT events such as Pride. And even then the butch-femme representation is quite small.

Sigh. Sarahwho, maybe we need to make a pilgrimage to a large b-f gathering just to be reassured that butches actually exist in real time.

i agree with sarawho... i am having Zero luck with coming across a butch here in Cali...

i was on 6 flights in four days earlier this week and i spotted several butches in the chicago and atlanta airports...made me swoon every time.

please......

I've never been a bar person; your lucky if I have 2 drinks a year, so the bar has never been a place for me. I'd rather find someone who I can talk with, who isn't drunk and that I can connect with on a deeper level than what any bar could ever offer. If I find someone, it certainly won't be anywhere that I'd have to deal with a drunk person!
