in the simplest terms, masc and fem are simply presentation and aesthetic focused umbrella terms that can be used by anyone who presents masc/fem. wheras, butch is a lesbian sociopolitical identity that also involves presenting masculine, but first and foremost it is an identity rooted in the history of lesbian bar culture around the 1940s and has a deep connection with antifascism. femme is also a lesbian sociopolitical identity and the role of a femme lesbian in history was primarily to protect butches due to the fact that they could hide their queerness with a more palatable feminine presentation, and they could protect butch lesbians from the harassment they faced from police and street violence. there are likely things i'm missing because i only went into a surface level history because i wanted to know what the terms meant so i didn't missuse them :)
