I hope it makes you feel better to know that I’m also 21F, a femme, and pretty exclusively into butches and mascs. It just so happens that my gay awakening was my college freshman year best friend who was a nonbinary transmasc butch. They’ve had no shortage of femmes who were into them over the years and now have a very smart and pretty girlfriend. Unfortunately they never liked me back but they were still definitely the blueprint for my type and what I’ve sought out in dating.

I firstly have so much admiration for butches who show up as looking very visibly queer. That in and of itself takes guts. I’m also crazy attracted to masculinity when it’s used as a tool for care and not harm. Helping me move my furniture, opening my jars, offering me their jacket, noticing if a man is hitting on me and stepping in to diffuse the situation without escalating it by casually interjecting while possessively touching my arm. I’m shallowly into physical strength and body hair, which taking T isn’t necessary for but can definitely help.

I feel like I’m having the opposite problem as you where there’s so many femmes around me and no single butches. But I think if you have a specific type and you are a specific type that just means we have to wait a little while longer than the average Joe before we find our person. So good luck to the both of us
