Mini-entry time! I just found a site (via Lifehacker) called Simple Desktops that boasts tons of minimalist computer desktops (free!). A few struck me as especially butch-appropriate, and I thought I'd share them with you. After all, why shouldn't your desktop look as effortlessly stylish as you do? Celebrate the start of the week with a new desktop look. Why not? Here's a boxer shorts desktop: ...And this one is understated... yet super gay! Perfect as we ease into Pride season: This is just cool: Butch specs: Perfect for the butch who's part Clark Kent and part Superman: Just nice and simple: This is probably my favorite one: glasses and a tie pretty much sum up my signature dressy look. Anyway, hope y'all had a swell weekend. My DGF and I got to spend much of the weekend with our buddies C and D (a butch-femme couple, though not strictly so), and it was way fun! We BBQ'd tri-tip, went on a three-mile hike, and drank a bunch of coffee while our dogs played in the sun. I don't think I realized how much I needed a break. Now I'm actually rested(!) and looking forward to the week(!!). I forgot how nice that feels.

It represents how butch identity sheds light on the epistemological assumptions that characterize gender discourse.

Interesting pics. But I have a question. How do you know if you are butch or not? I mean, I have been out for over 25 years, and still don't think of myself as a femme, although everyone else does. I wear lipstick/makeup, but prefer comfortable/sensible clothes. Just hate being labeled "girly", when I don't feel like I am! Any words of wisdom?

Well, here's my post about why *I* personally ID as butch: http://www.butchwonders.com/1/post/2011/05/why-i-identify-as-butch.html. And here are some of my thoughts about gender presentation more generally: http://www.butchwonders.com/1/post/2012/03/the-geometry-of-gender.html.
