are bisexual women allowed to use butch and femme to describe themselves or is that an exclusively lesbian thing?

As someone who isn’t a lesbian, I don’t feel comfortable enough to give you a definitive answer of my own opinion. My girlfriend and I are both bi/pan, and use them occasionally, and know many people outside of sapphic identities that use them, but I can’t actively tell you if it’s “allowed” or not.

I can, however, direct you to this article that has a lot of interesting information about the etymology and usage of them as identifiers! It highlights a lot of issues with mainstream queer (specifically lesbian/sapphic) culture. Here’s the main takeaway from it:“It’s pretty clear to me that the voices leading the Lesbian Exclusive argument consistently fail to account for where butch and femme have always, in some form, represented diverse gender expression for all identities.

[...]

Looking at all this put together, I have to say that it’s a mystery to me why so many lesbians, primarily white, believe that their history should take precedence over… everyone else that makes up the spectrum of LGBTQ+ experiences, even bi/pan Sapphics in same-gender relationships. If someone truly believes that owning butch/femme is more important than uniting and protecting all members of the Sapphic community from the horrors of homophobic and gendered oppression, maybe they’re the one who shouldn’t be invited to the party.”

So take that as you will, and if anyone has any input, feel free to send us a message or reply/reblog!

hi, I have a question about knowing the difference between wanting a romantic relationship with someone and wanting to be platonic friends with someone. I think I have a romantic relationship crush on someone but I'm not sure because I've never had a romantic crush before and also because I feel like a romantic relationship would be just like a friendship for me. basically I don't know whether I want a friendship or a relationship with this person and I'm confused. thanks :)

The difference it where you draw it. I don’t know the answer, because I’m not you. Everybody defines the difference between romance and platonicy differently; you can see it plain as day if you ask a group of five people and get six different answers.

do you think people have souls?

I think so maybe? Depends on how you define soul. But there’s definitely something that sets the human race apart. I think it’s our power to share, tell stories, empathize, and understand that we have great potential and deep consciousness.
