What does your username mean?

My screen name was originally a joke... I had HAD it up to THERE with people ignoring me because I was Femme and therefore couldn't know anything--no matter the subject, they talked to the Butch--even when she said, "gosh I dunno; let's ask Cath" they would ignore me and pretend that she had answered the question!!

I was really steamed so I drew a cartoon and labeled it "NO MORE MS NICE GUY! Baby Butch In Training--B-BIT!" Big joke, the best one I ever told on myself, since I haven't got a Butch bone in my body.

Then we got online, and I found a queer website, but I didn't have a clue what to name myself. My Butch said, "why not b-bit?" So I did. Then I got caught up in chat and discovered how fast people had to type, and how frustrating hyphens were, so eventually I just went went with bit.

THEN a couple years later I discovered a bigger website where it actually had a completely different meaning that my name wasn't capitalized--oy!! People got the wrong impression all the time; someone even said they assumed I was into pony play because of my name!

So when I came to the planet, I capitalized it.

I still prefer my real name, Cath, but it's been twelve years now, so I think I'm stuck with Bit.
