I need f/f fandom and media to start romanticising short butches and gnc women.

Like show them are sexy and desirable and longed for. Please.

[the-sappho-of-lesbos]

I’ll start! Be the change you want to see in the world and all that.

My beloved is probably around 5’3. Our lips are perfectly aligned. I can always see right into her eyes before we kiss. When I’m anxious in public I’ll run my fingers through her short hair and can do it while looking down so I don’t get overstimulated. She is so strong and will pick me up and spin me around. The curve of her hips is at a perfect height for hands. She’s the perfect size to be my little spoon. She can comfortably fall asleep in my lap. I still feel safe and engulfed in her arms. We both struggle to reach the top shelf and can laugh about it together.
