"There is something entirely too male about this person (girl in deleted pic), and I know that's what she's going for and I'm sure her girlfriend is just gaga over her, but not only does her appearance intimidate me...it makes me just generally uncomfortable. I can't say why, because honestly butch white girls don't bother me (i might be engaged in some black on black racism here) although I'm not attracted to them either. Back in the old days I didn't date black men, so it might be tied to that in some way"

well i dont see why her style upsets you...we are free to dress as we want to...especially since butch white girls dont bother you i dont see why butch black girls should...this person is dressing how she feels comfortable and i dont see the problem with that. People can be sexist, women and men alike. I dont think butches are any more sexist that anyone else. Sure the stud who says "get money and fuck hoes' is screwed up, but she cannot define all black butches or studs. you are generalizing and over simplying gender/race/class and social inequalities. also black male culture doesnt come from nowhere. its a product of multiple variables. i think a black stud intimidating you is akin to people getting scared if there is only one black man on a train in the middle of the night...i think if you were just discussing chauvinism within butch culture w.out being race specific a better discussion may be had
