  • Una soft butch o stem és una dona que exhibeix alguns trets estereotipats butch i lèsbics sense arribar a l'estereotip masculí associat amb lesbianes butch. El concepte soft butch forma part de l'espectre butch-femme, que varia del l'extrem més dur i masculí, o butch, fins a l'ultrafemení o femme, amb una major i predominant expressió de feminitat, com les lesbianes de pintallavis. Les soft butch tenen identitat de gènere de dona, però mostren principalment característiques masculines amb un toc de feminitat. La "duresa", o l'etiqueta que descriu un nivell d'expressió masculina com a butch depèn de la fluïdesa de la seva Les soft butch podrien voler expressar-se a través de la roba i pentinat d'una manera més masculina, però el seu comportament és més tradicionalment femení. Per exemple, els trets d'una soft butch poden incloure, o no, cabell curt, roba dissenyada per a homes i comportaments i deixos masculins. Normalment semblen andrògines, en lloc de respondre a una identitat de gènere concreta. Normalment s'expressen, a nivell físic, sexual i romàntic, de manera més masculina que femenina. A més de l'expressió de gènere a través del seu aspecte exterior, també tenen la seva pròpia manera d'expressar-se a nivell sexual. Les dones soft butch poden tenir un paper més passiu en les relacions sexuals o romàntiques, fet que sol associar-se al comportament sexual femení. Això és un exemple de com la sexualitat i aspecte d'una soft butch no és completament masculina i mostra alguns trets femenins. Per altra banda, les stone butch són molt menys fluides en la seva sexualitat i no volen contacte sexual de les seves parelles sexuals. Aquests desig d'expressar tant masculinitat com feminitat a través del propi gènere i sexualitat s'observa clarament en les dones soft butch, però també en molta gent de diferents orientacions sexuals.

  • A soft butch, or stem (stud-fem), is a lesbian who exhibits some stereotypical butch traits without fitting the masculine stereotype associated with butch lesbians. Soft butch is on the spectrum of butch, as are stone butch and masculine, whereas on the contrary, ultra fem, high femme, and lipstick lesbian are some labels on the spectrum of lesbians with a more prominent expression of femininity, also known as femmes. Soft butches have gender identities of women, but primarily display masculine characteristics; soft butches predominantly express masculinity with a touch of femininity. The "hardness", or label depicting one's level of masculine expression as a butch is dependent upon the fluidity of her gender expression. Soft butches might want to express themselves through their clothing and hairstyle in a more masculine way, but their behavior in a more traditionally feminine way. For example, these traits of a soft butch may or may not include short hair, clothing that was designed for men, and masculine mannerisms and behaviors. Soft butches generally appear androgynous, rather than adhering to strictly feminine or masculine norms and gender identities. Soft butches generally physically, sexually, and romantically express themselves in more masculine than feminine ways in the majority of those categories. In addition to a soft butch's gender expression through her outward appearance, she also has a distinctive way of sexually expressing herself. Soft butch women might want to have a more passive role sexually or romantically in their relationships, which is generally associated with feminine sexual behavior. This is an example of how a soft butch's sexuality and outward appearance are not completely masculine, but have some feminine traits. Conversely, stone butches are less fluid in their sexuality and do not want to receive sexual contact from their sexual partners. This desire to express both masculinity and femininity through one's gender and sexuality is clearly seen in soft butch women, but also across many people of a variety of sexual orientations. (en)
