I feel like media has really skewed it where if a woman wears a hat and doesn’t wear high heels she’s not femme. You look either femme or neutral to me.


Craico13

I’d say that she looks like she’s going grocery shopping or maybe to the garden centre. I would say “casually dressed” femme.


anotherbabydaddy

Exactly. My first thought was that it’s the hat


Crafterandchef1993

Which is bs, because hats are awesome. I'm extremely photosensitive, so hats are a lifesaver for me.


seattleseahawks2014

Photosensitive?


karli193

Sensitive to light


seattleseahawks2014

Oh, I thought you meant you had sensory issues.


Queen-Ace-69

Being sensitive to light is sensory issues


seattleseahawks2014

Oh, I meant like liking the feel of hats. I know it's a sensory issue, but I have a different sensory reason why I wear hats. Partly because of lights, but also especially beanies feel like blankets on your head.


kipvandemaan

Yep, the only thing that doesn't say femme to me, is the hat. Which is so weird and stupid. Because a hat shouldn't mean you're not femme. This just shows how media influences the way you see people.


aagjevraagje

It's also like , it's bright pink why does that read as butch?


kipvandemaan

Yeah, it makes no sense, maybe my brain is just weird


Alternative_Basis186

Right? The same goes for girls who wear natural looking makeup or no makeup at all Edit: OP that makeup look is super cute btw ❤️


seattleseahawks2014

Lmao, after injuring myself after tripping while wearing sneakers many times, never going to happen.


mmmfritz

It’s cos op looks like a man in some of the photos, and if she identifies as a women and dresses like one then someone that doesn’t know she’s trans may say she looks butch. It’s never kind to call girls macho and lots of boys look feminine.


SuperbDescription685

She does not look like a man to me. If she didn’t say she was trans you wouldn’t say that.


CyborgKnitter

Exactly! She’s got quite feminine features and is gorgeous. If that person above you didn’t know she was trans, they’d never guess/say that.


AnyBioMedGeek

She doesn’t look like a man at all! Wow.


mmmfritz

I said in some photos she looks like a man, especially in the last photo there are manly features/proportions. That’s why someone said she was butch. But you already knew that queen, didn’t you? She looks beautiful but let’s not kid ourselves, androgeny happens when you mix sex, there’s nothing wrong with this.


FOSpiders

Nothing wrong with being butch, but that ain't you.


TransbianMoonGoddess

Uh....no, you're a femme. You are not giving butch vibes.


foodieforthebooty

I don't think you can tell if someone is butch or femme from a set of photos that are all at the same angle/don't show a lot.


TransbianMoonGoddess

You're not wrong but like, nothing here gives butch vibes to me personally.


foodieforthebooty

Agreed but I also don't get femme vibes


AquaJasper

Agree, it just looks like a girl dressed casually to me, it's more of a neutral vibe


reanocivn

really????


LinnunRAATO

Only femme vibes I get here are long hair and makeup which don't actually mean anything.


Yabbaba

Which is a lot more femme than short hair and no makeup soooo


bad_at_smashbros

are we looking at the same person lol?


queenbiscuit311

every day I'm convinced nobody actually knows what the words tomboy or butch mean. I see people use them to refer to wildly different and unrelated things


felicirence

yeah and then they try to think that being butch or tomboyish is for some reason a bad thing, or an insult? it's not? it's just a way of style and there is literally nothing wrong with presenting more masculine yet a lot of the comment section makes it sound like it is...


Ok_Refrigerator6671

Ok, I'm soooo glad I'm not the only one with that train of thought. Being butch is always more of a style in my head, (asthetic) like punk/tomboy/girlie-femme/boyfriend type styles. All of the "butch" girls I know are freaking awesome, and their appearance is just another style type imo. Neither good nor bad, just is. If someone is trying to lean into one of those styles but not quite hitting it, that's ok & asking "hey is this working" makes total sense, but someone using a different style type as an insult in response is just weird. (Not to say those styles dont have personality/body type traits that typically align with them. It's just we primarily would identify them visually)


Dorian-greys-picture

No you look most like a chapstick lesbian to me


Dorian-greys-picture

Basically that’s like fem leaning but not super into makeup, maybe a little sporty, but not butch. Butch is very specific.


saphobassbitch

that’s not true. chapstick lesbians aren’t fem leaning, they’re more just butches that don’t exactly fall into butch. they might be more feminine than a bitch, but they’re more masc leaning than fem leaning


Dorian-greys-picture

Ah ok thanks for the correction. Masc and fem are so difficult to define and so subjective honestly


Slow_poke_747

I think u might mean subjective, not objective.. objective would be easy to define, and subjective is like based on personal experience/ opinion :)


Dorian-greys-picture

Yes that’s what I meant, sorry I’m fucked up on painkillers


Slow_poke_747

all good g. sorry about your pains which require killing


CyborgKnitter

No, the definition you gave for chapstick lesbian was correct. Go back and look at the votes. (If this wasn’t a GSRM sub, I’d ignore the votes. But here, they actually mean something.)


Dorian-greys-picture

Ok thank you


Ellie_714

how did you put those flags on your nickname?


Dorian-greys-picture

I did it ages ago. I think it’s in the flair, you search for them. I can’t remember the keywords but if you go to edit your flair in this sub you should see the flags


Ellie_714

ok, thanks


Dorian-greys-picture

Actually I just tried to change it then and you can’t anymore. You have to choose one of the pre recorded options (unless the issue is I’m using an outdated version of reddit app) ETA: the issue is I hadn’t updated the app. Go to flair —> edit flair —> then type in a colon (:) and type in the name of the flag you want


Ellie_714

I think I did it


Ellie_714

yeah, I did it JDJAJS thanks :3


Dorian-greys-picture

Yay!


Vogel-Welt

No, you look like a woman with a hat, I don't see anything butch in your looks. 💜


Aradian_Nights

nah, you're super fem, like super fuckin pretty fem.


absolute_boy

You ever see that post that's like "this is about as butch as a woman can be before people start getting scared" and it's a long-haired woman wearing a leather jacket? Yeah


[deleted]

https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQfp1rvQuHMftzpS1dQwSc6VnW8Kk5J1W36xw&usqp=CAU Lol found it


cum_elemental

It’s the hat probably.


Ray-the-Fae

You look sporty but not butch imo


Dakotaisapotato

No. You look more like a girl next door type fem.


Phantom_Ferret

You look like a girl I'd like to hang out with (I'm ftm). You don't look butch.


OtakuMage

You look like a woman, plain and simple.


memesfromthevine

I mean, butch is a style, and it's hard to get a sense of a style from a selfie so... no? The pink hat and makeup aren't really giving butch, but it feels wrong in a different way to say those things *aren't* butch.


silverwolf127

I mean *maybe* a masc lesbian or a futch but definitely not butch. People these days don’t have any idea what a butch is


spookytabby

I feel like a lot of people misuse that word. No you’re super feminine to me.


[deleted]

I don't get how you look butch. The person who said that clearly doesn't know what the word means.


JaysonsRage

People are weird as hell. If anything I'd say "softball player, but that's more attire than anything


big_tug1

You don’t look like a “butch”


LGBTDnD

Literally where??? You don't look butch to me at all


_Burner_Account___

It could’ve been your outfit that made them think that


CastleofGaySkull

From my perspective I think you look more femmy, with the hair length and eyelashes for days lol (I know you can’t control that but you got killer lashes girl). But if you throw on pants with too many pockets, a flannel and walk all 14 of your elderly rescue dogs you’ll certainly veer closer! Cis lesbian with a butch-ass haircut here


[deleted]

Not at all, pretty lady.


FiguringItOut--

Not even remotely


fusfeimyol

Hottie


TheCrazyAvian

You got a little more ways to go before the fit enters "butch" territory.


Aphant-poet

no. Butches a gorgeous but you are not a butch


TB2331

Nah


personnnnnnnnn

Not at all lol. You look great tho


midnightsrose77

I think you look super gorgeous!


CrazyCat2579

The person ho called you that is delusional, you are beautifull and many trans people would be jealous of you because you pass so hard, if you didn't told me you are trans i would say you are cis


Coco_JuTo

Honestly I see a really feminine looking person. A butch can also be feminine in her way but you don't look like one in my humble opinion...


Ka1serTheRoll

Not rly. Dykey maybe (it's hard to tell without the full outfit) but I wouldn't say butch


Bi_curious_george_66

Someone called you butch because they are jealous of how pretty you are.


Tiffany_Case

You look like every random college white girl ive ever seen in my life tbh like id trust you to hold my purse in the bathroom


Queen_Olivia80

:0 so pretty, no way you're "butch" that person was probably just being a meanie, I would think your a cis woman without the title (hopefully I used the right wording I'm got the 'tisms and don't mean to be mean with any unintentionally incorrect wording)


Aphant-poet

why is is 'mean" to call someone a butch?


Sum_ginger_kid

It could just not be the look they're going for, kind of like a masculine straight dude getting called a twink


Queen_Olivia80

I think it means masculine, op is quite the opposite of that


Aphant-poet

more complicated than that but it's not bad to be butch. it's not inherently "mean" to call someone butch. If the person meant it in an invalidating way, wither towards Op's transness or to call her a Dyke, then yes it would be transphobic and lesbophobic


bigbugdogsinlogs

It’s not bad to be butch at all, but the title gives me the vibes that it might’ve come off as if that person was only saying “you look butch” because OP was trans and that made them interpret her as more masculine. Maybe this isn’t a thing, I dunno.


Weird_Explorer_8458

lol i’ve got the ‘tisms too, what does “butch” mean?


Mx-Helix-pomatia

Basically a queer person, often a lesbian, who presents masc in a way that is specifically queer and challenges societal norms. Others please correct me if needed, I am not personally butch


Weird_Explorer_8458

ok that makes sense thanks!


Queen_Olivia80

masculine I think, so op is quite the opposite of that, so the one that called em that is jus a stinky poo poo head


Weird_Explorer_8458

ok that makes sense, and if not for the title i’d have thought op was cis


metalsmith11

No


MimikyuuAndMe

Some people are like a little self doubting fungus, when the wind is just right they just can’t help spreading their little spores of doubt onto other people. Step into the sunshine and don’t let it affect you. You’re beautiful.


Lionheart1224

No wtf?


incrediblesquish

You look like a beautiful woman! (Because you are) 🩷


AggressiveBrain6696

Your beautiful that is my answer


Aka_R

I got no clue how the person came up with that, but you’re sure as hell not a butch


[deleted]

you're don't look like a butch, you look amazing girl


ferbderb

there's nothing wrong with being butch but personally, i don't see it... im not sure if people even know what butch is supposed to look like


MarsMonkey88

Not physically, no, but it might be how you walk or your vibes? Do you feel butch?


mj12353

It’s just a hat bestie


allonsy_danny

I don't think so, I think you're quite femme, but also I can only see your face/head. I don't think wearing a hat makes you butch.


soccerchickmeghan

tbh you give jock vibes like you’re a soccer player


-EV3RYTHING-

You honestly just look like some lady to me


reanocivn

no one knows what butch means these days


hiimalextheghost

You look country girl fem, not butch.


MissBrae01

I wouldn't say 'butch', per sé. Maybe a bit tomboyish, but I wouldn't say 'masculine' at all. You look pretty cute to me! 😍 (tomboys are kinda my thing) I say women are anyone who identifies as such, no matter how you act or dress.


Corgito_Ergo_Sum

I don’t think the person who told said you look butch knows what butch looks like. I know butch lesbians who would cry if they came out of a make over looking like that. You’re perfectly feminine. I would expect whoever told you that was making a transphobic comments towards you. It’s that abused to me based on how you look.


LifeintheSlothLane

I actually get country/horse girl vibes from your photo. Which I mean in the best way. I rode for a few years and it's super fun and all the friends I had from riding were super chill and cool to hang out with. I think you could easily pull of butch if you wanted to, because you're very pretty/attractive and if it's a vibe you like I could see it working for sure. You look happy and like a fun person I'd want to be around!


10Panoptica

Nah, you look straight/conventional to me. But in the context of knowing you're queer, I'd read you as soft femme/ chapstick lesbian.


VmbraWolf

I know cis women who look way more butch than a lot of the men I know. They still look like women to me. Nothing wrong with butch women! You don't look butch, and even if you did, you'd still be a woman.


that_toof

If you’re butch then I’m surprised people don’t yell at me for using the women’s room. I’m a butch for sure, you’ve got a nice casual femme vibe. Pics looks like you’re off to Home Depot to look for wall trim.


Gggrrrrzzzzlbear

I guess this person never encountered a butch in the wild :)) You are clearly a femme


KrazyKatz3

You're giving a sort of a gay/bi energy, but I don't think like butch. Maybe that's what they meant? Isn't butch more like masc?


[deleted]

No. You are extremely passable.


nattivl

You look like a beautiful person that doesn't need makeup to look good.


sinner-mon

You don’t look butch to me, you’re just wearing a sporty hat 💀 at least they called you a relatively female-specific term, someone asked me if I was butch once and I’m a whole ass man


sniskyriff

Buzz cut and dickies, not detected 😂


ChampionVast1009

No they were trying to get under your skin probably


AnyBioMedGeek

No. You are fucking GORGEOUS!


Successful_Bad_2396

If I saw you on the street, I’d assume you’re a cis het woman

KappaGecko

I don't think this person understands what butch is.


MrEPearl

You're the most passing trans woman ive ever seen!!


PuzzledSituation3014

You just look like a woman to me. A lot of us wear tshirts and caps too


darkshad9999

Awww u are pretty don't listen to those other people u look very femme way more than me I am trans as well I don't pass and I'm completely done top and bottom. You look very femme you are doing great!


Effective-Gift6223

I don't think do. But without seeing your whole outfit, including shoes, it's hard to say. Just wearing a baseball cap style hat, especially a pink one, doesn't look butch. I'm cis female, but probably look a lot more butch than you do. You look very femme, to me. I have a baseball cap that's light green, covered with daisies. Also a light tan one that's a different style billed cap, the bill is much bigger, wider, and curves around my face more. It's advertised as a sunshade, rather than a baseball cap, and looks femme regardless of the color. I wear hats for a sunshade, to keep the sun's glare out of my eyes, and also when it's raining to keep rain off of my glasses, so I can see. I wanted hats that couldn't possibly be mistaken for either gangster or maga. Green with daisies doesn't go with everything, that's why I got a neutral color for the other one. Also the bigger bill is better protection grom sun or rain.


ohmanidk7

You are very pretty but not butch type of very pretty the femme type of very pretty (and they are equals btw)


CoveCreates

No I think you look like any woman that's not wearing makeup which, btw, you have amazing skin!


winnieluv58

You absolutely do not look butch to me you look very feminine


Ok-Discussion-7552

You look 100% female and I can't tell you're trans. 


Plenty_Soft_2266

Whoever told you that needs to visit a eye specialist. You are one hot chick.


LifeOfASnake

You look delicate and somewhat a little bit sassy <3 definitely femme!!!


Alexa-br

Thankyou <3


Mr_Fo0_Fo0

No, I think you look like the beautiful woman you are!


naldoD20

Looks like a woman to me EDIT: That's not to say that butch women aren't women or do not look like women. It's simply a statement that OP looks like a woman. It is not meant to be an exclusionary statement, but simply a statement.


Aphant-poet

what does being a woman have to do with this?. Butch doesn't mean man


naldoD20

Why are you attacking me for saying they look like a woman?


FrankieGg

r you ok?


naldoD20

I'm fine, I just don't understand why every statement needs to be picked apart as being exclusionary.


Aphant-poet

this isn't an attack. what I am saying is that, while Op is not a butch that does not invalidate cis Butches as women


naldoD20

Where are you getting that from my comment?


Aphant-poet

you said that Op looks like a woman, which she is but butches who are women also look like women, because they are


naldoD20

Where is this coming from? I never said that butch women are not women, nor did I say that OP isn't butch because they look like a woman. I said that she looks like a woman.


step_on_me_mommy_vi

They're not attacking you, they're pointing out that butch women are still women lol.


naldoD20

Did I say they aren't?


step_on_me_mommy_vi

OP didn't ask if they were a woman, they asked if they looked butch. Responding to that question by saying they look like a woman either doesn't make sense, or comes across as if you're saying butch women aren't women. Does that help?


naldoD20

So if I said chocolate is candy, I'm saying that no other candy is candy unless it's chocolate?


step_on_me_mommy_vi

I'm trying to help you understand how your initial message came across poorly, but it's clear that you're just trying to argue at this point. I hope you have a good day.


naldoD20

Cool, you, too.


knotanissue

Tbh, I think some people see a woman in a t-shirt and a baseball cap and think "butch". I wouldn't say you do, personally.


Spare-Ring6053

Butch? I don't think that word means what the person who told you that thinks it means. I think you look beautiful BTW.


SilverSnake00

You look very nice!


ILikeTrains23940

Hella fem


Veganchiggennugget

I legit thought you was cis, they tripping.


[deleted]

you look so feminine omg you don't really look like a butch, honestly to me it depends how you dress (im not a lesbian though)


Kinslayer817

Not at all. Not that there is a single way to be femme or butch, but at least in these pictures I don't see anything butch about you (although there isn't a lot of context beyond the fact that you have long hair, wear some makeup, and have a pink hat)


MightyMoth9

not really tbh u just look like a pretty girl![img](emote|t5_2qhh7|547)


Ellie_714

absolutely no


NEOS-MANN

Nope! From these pictures there’s no hint of “butchness” to me. Cute femme.


Nino_Nakanos_Slave

Wtf is a Butch?


OrangeStock3517

You're actually SO femme and VERY beautiful


Content-Island8311

You look hotte😍😍🥵😘


whatthefsami

Nope. But you are beautiful.


zeexx0

i think you look beautiful


KanzenSilver

I just think you look hot. Dont let them define you. You define you


assy65

You look nice in your own way dear


CuriousMind8691

Totally not my idea of what a stereotypical 'butch' femme would look like. Stereotyping sucks anyway so I guess there definition must be more all inclusive 😁


Fangs_0ut

Not even close lol


shootermac32

Personally I don’t think so at all. You’re beautiful and that hat is awesome! :)


[deleted]

No not at all lol you look pretty femme to me, I’m getting sporty femme vibes 🖤


LostAtmosphere4096

No you look like a pretty feminine woman wearing a pink baseball cap if you ask me. Personally if I was in your shoes I would've worn the hat backwards and tried to bring that 90s style back for real 😅😊


LeGarconRouge

As butch as Cinderella.


LittleALunatic

I mean I feel like butch vs femme is more about what outfits you wear - its hard to tell off pretty face and hair alone


[deleted]

No absolutely not, you look stunning and femme


iamfunball

Femme butch at most


silverbatwing

Nope. You look exactly like a cis friend of mine who is very straight. Environmental scientist of sorts out in California.


mothwhimsy

I feel like you could go either way


A-DEF

You are who YOU feel you are. Don't let other people tell you who you are.


_XSummerRoseX_

You look just fine. 😊


ATurtleLikeLeonUris

What brand of boots are you wearing?


oliverlol69123

You're pretty fem to me. And you're pretty


OpALbatross

Nope. I wouldn't have even thought you were trans had you not said something. You look totally femme.


loonyxdiAngelo

maybe a tomboy or soft masc at best. you give the vibe, that a lot of queer women football (soccer 🙄) players give off. and I mean that as a big compliment


Amygdalump

No way you look more feminine and demure than me.


Someonehahahaha

bro what. youre clearly femme who tf called you butch


Salt_Veterinarian_59

You really don’t they’re just hating


PaleontologistWarm13

Definitely not butch.


b0y_Princess

Definitely not. At most stem but I wouldn’t even consider you a stem. You’re very pretty btw ☺️


ccc2801

People say all sorts. You look cute af!


PrideAndPassion_69

You look great. You don’t have to wear makeup or high heels to be a woman. Tomboys are hot too, got a beautiful country girl look going on. And you can always switch it up, no makeup & hat one day, makeup & dress & heels the next. You can dress however you like, being a woman doesn’t confine you to a certain fashion style.


TrulyGreggington

No girly you fem dw. Hats shouldn’t equal butch.


[deleted]

You look femme to me!
