“I’VE GOT A SECRET SANTA PRESENT FOR YOU BETWEEN MY LEGS”
I love butch women because, in their big black boots, they step squarely across a line. I love butch women for the same reasons I love sissy men, the transgendered, the slutty, the outrageous queers of every stripe; the women and men who sell sex, and the ones who use sex to heal; the fetishists whose eroticism is more complicated than anyone ever let on to us eroticism could be. I love butch women because, in the face of ridiculously constricting gender imperatives, they have the balls to say Fuck it - and to carve into our culturally empty space a different and powerfully confrontive way to live as a woman.

I’ve spent most of my life and most of my friendships holding my breath and hoping that when people get close enough they won’t leave, and fearing that it’s a matter of time before they figure me out and go.

Commenter Turkish on #2 Best Queer TV Character Betty McRae
I am pretty much obsessed with Betty right now. She is IMO the best written and performed lesbian character that’s been on tv in a long time and that’s coming from a massive fan of just about everyone else on this list including Santana. Bomb Girls and Lost Girl also makes it seem like the Canadians are doing queer characters better than Americans these days.
