'Cherrie Pie' by the Plagues (from Massachusetts, not to be confused with the band of the same name from Michigan) isn’t just garage rock—it’s garage rock pushed to its most primal, most deranged extreme!

hiiii i actually love this question it's not stupid....

i think it's important to say that what makes ME butch. isn't what makes everyone else butch. everyone's different everyone experiences their identity in their own way etc etc etc

butchness is more than what most people think, like just having short hair and wearing dumb jeans. it's a way of being, something i express through all aspects of my identity, including the way i dress and behave.

i see some people saying we're reinforcing stereotypes by saying "i behave in a masculine way" because there's no "masculine" way to behave which like. okay i see where you're coming from. i do i really do but in our society it still very much is established how men are supposed to act, masculine, and how women are supposed to act, feminine.

now, being a lesbian (or queer in general) already inherently goes against this idea, but being butch is like a. double. to me.

a woman behaving the way a man does, looking like a man, loving women (in whatever way, romantically, sexually, platonically, just bc of lesbian connection <3, or wtv else), is rebellion. gender transgression. revolution!

i dress pretty masculine (as well i can with the clothing taste of a 15 year old emo girl (im wearing my black sweater with jason from friday the 13th thats has red stripes on the sleeves)) but i will grow out of that. i have long ish hair. my hair's an important part of me & despite it being long, it still ties to my butch identity.
