Queer spaces are few and hard to come by; queer women-centered spaces are even more elusive. So I gay the cynicism that may be directed at a femme who appears straight in a gay bar. Not that I necessarily agree with it; I mean, eventually the goal is for everyone to be able to hang out in the same space without killing each other, right?

And that assumption coming from my own lesbian community hurts me more than the thousands of heterosexual folks I meet in my daily life that make the same inference. Just you try to take it away. Go on, I dare you. What are your experiences of being femme in a gay femme Do you have any solutions for combating femme invisibility within queer spaces?

Have you ever presented more gay in a gay bar to feel more comfortable? Tags: featuredfemmegay barinvisiblitylesbianLGBT. Categories: Femme TheoryThe Archives. I think a lot of it is how we carry ourselves. The way we walk, how we look at club girls. Own being femme, sit at the bar and offer to buy a girl a drink after making sure she is solo of course.

I have never made myself appear more masculine to fit in. God, it took me long enough to be comfortable in who I was, I was not going to buy into any more stereotypes of what I was supposed to be. You are totally right about the body language as a way to announce ourselves as queer when we enter the room. Of course, club will be no sitting at the bar and buying a girl a drink for me, as I am happily taken!

But totally good advice in theory :. I agree… I looooooove femme girls. Lipstick is hot! So is being yourself. Although I do not identify as femme I totally understand. No but seriously, I hear you! I hate not being readable all the time, and I hate it most in queer spaces where I want to feel most at home.

I have certainly tried to queer my appearance, NOT to look less femme but to read as queer femme rather than straight feminine.
