To me being a butch ain't about blue jeans and black tee shirts, flannels and boots, it isn't about fixing cars and woodworking either. Being a butch is about integrity, it's about considering others in all we do. It's about opening doors and uplifting others, it's about being the solid foundation and the rich, fertile soil in which others grow.

People aren't used to that, they aren't used to being considered, it's often scary to them. But I hope that someday everyone gets used to the feeling.
