are there any alt terms like butch that aren't lesbian exclsuive ?
not all butches are lesbian or sapphic at all. but it's still heavily associated with lesbians, so I see why people might want alternatives. some handy terms exist, such as tomboy and masc (not necessarily masculine), but they aren't quite there yet.
azurgirl and azurenby exist as an alternative to tomboy. stag and tomcat are bi-specific versions of butch and futch. butchcat derived from tomcat and butch. dragon and drake for ace-spec people. flags for bi/pan butch. mech for pan. enbutch was coined for non-binary butches.
see also: fruit list; damme/tomme; knight (masc bi man); crow (bi n-by masc); jackhound.
notice that it's rare to reference unfemininity without the word masculine. there are always synonyms. macho is nonspecific in English.
