About

        I'm a thirtysomething woman who started this blog because I realized that I had a lot to say about life as a butch lesbian--particularly about fashion, but also about everyday things: getting sir'd in the restroom, trying to get a decent haircut, etc. 
        I didn't come out until my late twenties, at which point I was married to a man, presenting as a "normal" woman, and really hoping I wasn't gay.  The transition from married het woman to butchy dyke has been interesting and hard and terrible and great.  I'll probably blog a bit about that, too.
         This site (which is not just for butches, and not even just for lesbians) is a container for my questions and observations about gender and butchness.  I write on topics ranging from the metaphysical to the practical, including angst, relationships, Subarus, and button-down collars.  I'd love to hear your feedback.
        When I'm not blogging, it's a pretty safe bet that I'm reading, running, or writing something else.  I have a weakness for dogs, sharp cheese, oldies rock, and other butches.  I have too many projects going simultaneously, but that's just how I roll.
