Hi! Hello! This episode, we introduce a new segment: DISPATCHES.
Last week, I reached out and asked you to submit voice recordings answering and expanding on some questions as a starting off point; a place from which you could branch out and move the narrative in the direction that felt important to you. I asked you: What do you love about being femme or butch? If you don’t align with or identify as femme or butch, what do these genders or gender expressions mean to you in an historical context, or when thinking about our elders? What is hard for you about being femme or butch in a contemporary context? And lastly, who are your femme and butch roots?
And golly, did you deliver! Thank you to Stevie, René, Ziya, Lianne and Arti for being so generous with your time and insight. I'm deeply moved and charmed by your offerings.
Don't worry if you missed this week! Submissions are ongoing. Follow us on instagram for the next round, or send something in anytime! butchfemmepodcast@gmail.com
please SUBSCRIBE, rate and share with your big queer pals!
