#192 Rob, Northampton Stone Butch

Robin, our East Coast Butch Sighter, writes:

"Rob, a stone butch of Northampton, MA, escorted Butch Sightings to Chelsea, NYC art openings. At a photojournalism show of WeeGee, we saw this image of two butches -- so I made it three."

#184: Brahm in Northampton

A butch did a butch sighting! Love that.

"This is Brahm, he ids as genderqueer. He and his gf, Laura, just moved back to MA from GA where he was getting a degree in Historic Preservation. He's looking for a job and cooking at a great local queer-owned restuarant, The Green St Cafe."

#161 Sam

Robin, ever the sighter, even in the winter when most butches seem to have gone underground, says:

"This is Sam. I was walking in the bank as Sam was walking out and she backed up and held the door for me. I gave her a big smile and thanked her (love butch manners), and then we both said, 'hey wait, I know you?' Turns out we both lived in Northampton, MA around the same time. We both moved to Brooklyn last year too. Sam said a femme found her as soon as she moved here. I said, well I guess you ID as a butch then. She does and I told her about Butch Sightings. 'Way cool!' was her response."
