Bringing It Up: Describe The Butch You Are

[Jean_TX]

This is an interesting thread. Rather than describe who I am and listing my strengths (I do have some!) and my foibles (I have lots of them!), I want to respond by describing the role that I attempt to fulfill in a relationship. I may not always succeed, but I do give it my most sincere and best effort.

I aspire to be the Butch...

…Who will sometimes walk behind you,
To allow you to pursue your own dreams, to give you space,
To let your light shine brightly without being blocked by my shadow,
To provide you with a safe retreat if needed.

...Who will sometimes walk ahead of you,
To protect you, to guide you when needed,
At other times, to follow my own dreams, find my own space.

…Who will mostly walk along side you,
To be your friend, lover, and partner,
To be connected, yet each of us retaining our individualities,
To help you, me, and “us” make it through the hard times,
To revel with you during the special times, to contentedly share all the ordinary moments,
To support you, honor you, and cherish you.

Bumping this

I'm the kind of butch That confuse a lot of people. I'm strong physically and mentally yet I can be soft and vulnerable. I wear men's clothes but love a good sexy bra. I bind sometimes and sometimes I love the way my breast look in some shirts. I walk hard and have my own swagger and sometimes I shake my ass Because I know she is watching. I love short masculine hair but love mine shoulder length. Some times I pack and sometimes I don't. I love to be the top but have no problem being the bottom. I'm the bug killer but am terrified of mice. I'm sometimes hard and kick ass Then sometimes I'm soft. I know who I am and some times I confuse myself. I am a confident, strong, hard working, sometimes insecure beautiful/handsome butch woman. Ill take shit from people but not allow someone to disrespect the woman in my life. I don't fit in any box Because I've worked most of my life to get out of one. I'm just me

Hm, describe the butch I am...

I'm the kind where butch is an adjective, and loves the cis-female body I was born in.

Where I have my hairdresser use a number 4 clipper and wear knit boxer briefs. I'm the type that wears either Hawaiian or button down shirts at work.

That shaves her legs and armpits and sings show tunes while cooking dinner.

I pack when I'm in the mood and like eyeliner.

The kind that shouts "That's MR. Dyke to you" when asshats yell things from their car.


I'm the one who's been told "you're not that butch" and respond with a snort and raised eyebrow.

Where it's attitude, not size or profession or wardrobe. Where my butch energy makes me taller than the 5'2" I am.

The kind of person I am is the kind of butch I am.

By all means.
