About Queer Theory: Butch Brilliance

“When people speak admiringly of a butch, what I see is someone who has taken on the best gendered characteristics of both woman and man, left a lot of the stuff born of misogyny and heterosexism behind, and walked forward into the world without apology.” - S. Bear Bergman, Butch is a Noun
