As a gay man and a member of the LGBT and Leather community, I know my share of lesbians, many of them very masculine in their appearance and mannerisms. I would call them "butch". But recently it seems that the word "butch" has fallen out of favor, so it was a pleasant surprise to see "Butch Voices LA". It's a conference for and by butch women and trans people who identify as butch.
I have a lot of women who identify as butch in my life and I am glad to see this particular flavor of genderqueer getting a chance to have their own space and conference. The conference is on Oct. 8–10 in West Hollywood, Calif.
