wait… if there is compulsory femininity
then this means that being butch is necessarily resistance to this
and then this means that butches are inherently more radical/revolutionary than femmes
gosh.
i swear…
this sounds EXACTLY LIKE the typical white discourse around gender and masculinity
(both queer and not-queer)
i mean…
obviously butches are more valuable bc of their revolutionary expression and resistance to compulsory femininity…
this means we ought to centre them in our discourse and spaces!
