Hi Krystle, thanks for dropping by. The point of my post was that it is impossible to write a WikiHow article explaining how to “properly” be a butch lesbian. There is no correct way to be a butch lesbian – it’s a form of self-expression and identity that has existed for a long time and has meant different things to different people. Writing a WikiHow about how to be a butch lesbian would be like writing a WikiHow article on how to be a woman. There are certain things that can never be defined.

Hey Michelle – Pleeeeeease edit the article to make it better! The “wiki” in “wikiHow” means “If I’m wrong, fix me. Right now. Do it. Press ‘edit’.” If you need any help – or if you want me to edit the article for you with your advice – let me know. But, I think it’d be better if you created an account (just username and password, promise) with your name (or Angry Butch Lesbian, which I doubt is taken) and edited it yourself, so that people know who added the advice.

Oh my god, I will be right up there with Hipster Hitler and his “I <3 Juice" t-shirt.

The day I get my t-shirt business off the ground, and believe me, I have many ideas that have built up over the years, I will make sure to have a special one made just for you.

I think you may have coined the latest hipster-techie-lesbian ironic t-shirt statement: “Angry butch lesbian. Angry butch lesbian. Crawl me Google, crawl me!” Please design a shirt with this and I will buy it from you. Selling merch should help you to forever win the Google Analytics game.

Sadly, that version of Star Wars only exists in my head. It’s called “Star Wars VII: Jedi Master Leia”

Jeez, why don’t they just re-label that WikiHow to “How to be a Butch Lesbian that Doesn’t Make Straight People Feel Uncomfortable”? Or, as I like to call it, “How To Express Yourself as an Individual.. But Still Conform To Society’s Standards”.

And I really wish I’d seen *that* version of Star Wars!!

I just recreated the search, and you were #2! #1 was someone using the term in a more offensive manner…so you’d better work on knocking them off.
