“Home is where the trees look normal” is the sweetest, saddest, most nostalgic truth I’ve ever heard.

It's almost laughable what the internet and very young queer people have done to the words butch and especially femme. I think I could go on for hours and hours on how important that little yet huge letter "e" is at the end of the word. People have turned this special term into something so superficial and tedious. To them "femme" simply means hyperfeminine. It's sweet, pink, docile, delicate, soft, submissive. Which of course, certain femmes actually do identity with those words but little do these people know or understand is that to be femme is to be just as hard and aggressive as what they see being butch is. It's in gesture, in stature, in autonomy, in courage, in love that is so deep and true for other butches and fellow femme sisters. Femme is something inherently erotic and so sensual. Our history literally shows that femmes used their physical privilege to protect and stand up for butches, femmes were the ones who would go out and work due to the fact that people would not hire such masculine presenting women. In conclusion, to be femme is to be beautiful and lovely but it's also to use your fucking voice and know who and what came before us.

So I follow N. D. Stevenson (comics writer and animator, most famous for Nimona and She-Ra and the Princesses of Power) and his husband Lee Ostertag (also a comics writer and animator) on Instagram. When I started following them, they were both publicly presenting as women, and then a few years ago N. D. came out as transmasc nonbinary, and then earlier this year Lee also came out as transmasc. Anyway this is all setup to say that Lee had the chance to make the funniest post of all time and he took it:

Absolutely iconic.
