Be Butch.
Have you heard of Tomboy Toes? They are a new shoe company designing for women, butches, trans people, MOC folks – and anyone who might want a more masculine shoe than those traditionally found in the women’s section. I have been paying attention to them for some time now, watching their progress and rooting them … Read more
My wife came home from her first physical therapy appointment today. She is having some issues with her hip. Anyway, I asked her how it went. “Good,” she says. “The therapist evaluated my feet, calves, knees, the whole chain. She told me that I have Barbie Feet!” I could tell by the smile on her … Read more
My wife and I had an interesting moment this morning. She was watching Mary Lambert’s new video, Know Your Name. My wife tells me that “Callie” from Gray’s Anatomy, Sara Ramirez, is in the video. I like her, so I look over. Just in time to see her unhooded (she is actually in a mysterious … Read more
I love talking about Butch fashion. I think Butches can benefit from some sharing in this regard. Many of us grew up in a household where we weren’t taught how to dress, like our siblings and friends who were all lined up gender-wise were. Moms teach their daughters how to dress for different occasions. This … Read more
On May the Fourth Be With You, or Star Wars Day, I’d like to pay homage to Mr. Han Solo. Today, I am dressed like Han. I will walk around today in my Han costume, pretending to be him. Rakish good looks, charm to spare, self confidence on overload. Do I do this for the clothes? … Read more
Hi BOTs. A few random thoughts for you as I sit in my seat on the plane. 1. Couldn’t find a parking spot this morning. Being late and having to park closer to the airport isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Also, no one is leaving the airport at 6:30 am. 2. Been called … Read more
I’m excited to be able to run my first contest. And it’s not for a free CD or tshirt – not that I don’t love free CDs and tshirts. I mean, everyone loves a free tshirt. Just look how the crowd absolutely loses its (collective) mind when someone starts throwing tshirts from the stage. You’ll … Read more
I am honored to have been selected as one of the Stylish 100 by DapperQ. What a great compliment! Check out the list here (http://www.dapperq.com/2015/06/100-most-stylish-dapperqs-2015/). It’s Butch to be recognized for being yourself. Be Butch.
I am reprinting on my blog from the Huffington Post. I recently sat down with up-and-coming singer-songwriter Sofia. We had so much fun talking that I lost myself in a few places. What? I’m not a professional journalist. I am a butch lawyer who writes a blog, and I can count on one hand how … Read more
So where did we leave off? Oh yeah… Friday was a blast – we were drinking at the White Party. We did some dancing. And then we did a little drinking. You know, seeing and being seen. Or in our case, I was seeing and my wife was being seen. She looked amazing (obviously). It’s … Read more
