Two years ago I, as a genderqueer, non-conforming, consenting adult, fell in love with an old school, hog riding butch. This heavily tattooed, high and tight haircut butch is still, two years later, the love of my life.

She also happens to be the life of the party, whether there is an actual party or not. You walk into a room with this butch and the cheers go up whether it's a backyard bonfire or folks drinking coffee on the porch.
