X Marks the Spot

by

Hi all. I’m headed to surgery bright and early this morning. So early, in fact, that it’s dark outside. The thought is they will rebuild my Bicep and clean up my rotator cuff or labrum (which sounds dirty every time I say it). I’m butch enough to admit some trepidation. Hell, I’ll even call it … Read more

What to Buy a Butch for the Holidays

by

(Notice the clever, but oh-so-subtle use of “Holidays” instead of any particular December religiously-identified festivity.) Alright, so you just realized that your daughter is a butch. Or you have finally realized that your mom, who you always knew was a lesbian, is a butch. Maybe your co-worker or boss is a butch and you want … Read more

The Broom

by

As promised in my last post, I am going to share some things about the whole getting married process. Here goes. The first wedding-y thing that She and I did was go to a bridal bazaar. Fun, right? Yes, you are probably imaging right now that I signed us up gleefully and dragged her to … Read more

Poem + Tweet = Peep

by

She Found Me

by

Butch is single. Isn’t she? I committed in a post late last year that Butch would stay single. It’s easier, I thought. After all, I need to keep some things for myself. Right? Plus, it is a lot of fun to flirt. No harm or anything. Just fun. Only it’s getting harder for Butch to … Read more

Hunting for Valentines: Interview with Kiyomi

by

I broke my interviewing cherry with Kiyomi McCloskey from Hunter Valentine. Now, don’t worry. I already know that I am not a journalist (surprise!), nor do I write for Rolling Stone, so I decided to just talk to Kiyomi — and, of course, ask questions that I thought people who read my blog would be interested … Read more
