my elder lesbian therapist fervently believes that this is a positive aspect of lesbian community, and that when people are capable of platonic relationships with past romantic/sexual partners it means they see their partners both past/present and potential as whole people!

“my butch” “my femme” literally the equivalent of “my girlfriend/boyfriend/partner/wife/husband” for butchfemme lesbians. it is a very meaningful endearment, that communicates and affirms a couples connection on a subcultural identity level… enough of this.

butch/femme is not an archaic remnant of the 1940s bar scene but a community rich in history that lives on in the consciousness of the lesbian working class. surviving, expanding, persistent, alive and well. stop treating modern butch/femmes as complete revivalists.

it used to make me feel bad as a femme, to be approached by men, as if i wasn’t doing my job, not being subversive enough… conforming to the male gaze. that shit is not real, men will consume anything whether it is meant for them or not.
