I'm So Butch That...

5/8/2012

In my last post, I showed y'all the teal toenails I'm currently rocking.  I posted on the BW Facebook site, "I'm so butch that I can paint my toenails without threatening my butchness."  I asked readers to complete the sentence, I'm so butch that _______.  Here are some of their responses:
  • I'm so butch that I open the door for gay men.
  • I'm so butch that jumping 10 feet in the air after seeing a mouse and screaming like a girly girl then cursing like a sailor doesn't bother me at all. Still butch!
  • I'm so butch that when someone calls me "sir," I enjoy making eye contact and embarrassing them on the spot!
  • I'm so butch that when I go the doctor, they don't ask me I've ever been pregnant or if I'm pregnant now.
  • I'm so butch that when I was 15 I wished my gorgeous 40-year-old neighbor would leave her husband and be with me instead.
  • I'm so butch that I'm confident enough to get a mani/pedi every couple of months.
  • I'm so butch that even my mom shops for me in the men's department!
  • I'm so butch I can wear a Giorgio Armani suit better than a man.
  • I'm so butch that I let my girlfriend kill the spiders while I run shrieking. Still butch.
  • I'm so butch that I do not have to paint my toenails.
  • I'm so butch that I fail to understand the tendency for butches to cry or coo at cute kitties and puppies.
  • I'm so butch that I would rather use a shovel and muscle instead of a rototiller!
  • I'm so butch that my fruit flies have banished me from wearing dresses and growing out my hair because I look like a straight guy trying to be a drag queen. 
  • I'm so butch that I can cry when I feel the need.
  • I'm so butch that I like the men's room one and I say "thank you" when people call me sir.
  • I'm so butch that Leslie Feinberg asks me where I buy my clothes!
  • I'm so butch that I might curl my eyelashes and flash 'em at the girls, but when wearing an A-shirt I still get called "buddy" by strangers. That's just how I choose to rock it.
  • I'm so butch I sent my daughter to my sister's house to learn how to apply makeup.
  • I'm so butch that I go shopping with my straight male friend and hold his stuff and sit on benches while I count the minutes until it's time to go home. The salespeople think we are a gay male couple
  • I'm so butch that I wear boxers and tank tops.
  • I'm so butch that I would punch someone in the nose if they asked, "Do you have a boyfriend?"
  • I'm so butch that I can sneak into a mens restroom without so much as a glance.
  • I'm so butch that almost every time I get into a women's bathroom line, men start lining up behind me like, yup this must be the line if he's in it!
  • I'm so butch that I still open the doors for the ladies wherever I may be--you don't see many males doing that any more.
  • I'm so butch that my fiancee laughs when I run out of boxer briefs and have to resort to wearing women's undies!
  • I'm so butch that I can rock pink and yellow better than some femmes!
  • I'm so butch that I can say I love decorating.
  • I'm so butch that my daughter buys me dress shirts and ties.
  • I'm so butch that I was walking the walk before I even knew how to talk the talk.
I love seeing how different readers define butch.  How would YOU finish the sentence, I'm so butch that ____?

I'm so Butch that, even though I have long hair, worn out and flying free, I still get asked "Can I help you Sir?"

BTW you completely forgot the long-haired butch in your coverage of butch hairstyles... Major oversight.

That's interesting about hairstyles... Surprisingly, not even ONE of the nearly 100 styles I received from readers were long hair.

I'm so Butch that I personally cement rendered my house - then spent a month agonising over what colour would go best with the new red roof!

I'm so butch that when I'm at work in a super conservative industry and have to be more feminine and have a purse on my shoulder and longer hair, I still get called sir by the coffee barista.
