Where was this, and what year was this, when you were able to be a "butch dyke" and yet "glory in being a woman"? I'm so jealous. I don't think a lot of girls these days have this experience, and I surely didn't as a pre-teen or teen in the 1990s. Even trying to access the gay community, it was all gay men.

It was in the late 70s in the US.

I just assumed women's rights would keep improving. Boy, was I wrong, but I never, ever thought that in 2020, my rights would be under attack for the supposed benefit of what we used to call transvestites or maybe trans-sexuals. TBH, I never saw one outside of a gay bar, and those were often fun, sometimes tragic, gay men, who seemed harmless.

Little did I know...
