*This List is Descriptive Not Prescriptive- Every Femme is Unique*
Some Tell-tale Signs a Queer Femme is Queer:
They are WAY over-dressed/Stand out based on their fashion choices
They have swagger
They tell engaging stories and clever jokes and try not to let anyone around them feel uncomfortable
If you make eye contact with them they do not break it, in fact they might smile back
If you talk to them they are flirtatious
They might own a pair of cat-eye glasses
They might have visible tattoos
They might use ambiguous pronouns to talk about their exes
They have extensive knowledge of women’s history, feminist art, and are involved with political issues and combating oppression of all sorts
They look “straight” but they are surrounded by conspicuous dykes, punks, and queers
If they tell you they’re queer don’t question it, THEY ARE!!!
Ways to get a Femme Girlfriend:
Buy their zine, follow their twitter, shop at their vintage store online or in real life, read their blog, go to the dance party they dj, just generally learn what they are into and support it in a respectful way.
Tell their friends you think they are hot (they are guaranteed to know within 5mins).
Make eyes at them.
Be chivalrous
Look cute
Ask them on a date
Be charming
Be interested
Be good at what you do and impress them
Compliment them
Even if you didn’t, tell them you knew they weren’t straight all along.
Be amazing in bed…find out what they like…for me that means, be mean in bed…leave marks.
DO NOT BE INTIMIDATED. We can smell fear.
