The Queer Masculine

@queermasculine / queermasculine.tumblr.com

A blog for genderposting and assorted aesthetic, run by a transmasculine butch lesbian. Mailbox is always open but responses will come with a delay if at all, sorry. Not here to represent all of lesbianism or transmasculinity as a whole just my own experience. Posts may not always be about queer masculinity.

a heartfelt thanks to everyone who's ever sent me a nice message on here, i get shy about publishing compliments because it's like "so you agree?" but they really do keep me going

relevant again.. i can't publish everything folks send to me, but i do read all of it, and if you said something nice, it probably made my day. so thanks!

I am not immune to taking millions of the same photo while doing my bench press

I Heart Brooklyn Girls was a pin-up calendar produced by a group of Brooklyn artists with the goal of celebrating and making visible queer femininity. The 2011 edition was inspired by "classic lesbian and gay pulp novels of the 50’s and 60’s and features local femmes, tomboys, butches, trans, and other hotties from Brooklyn’s queer community."

10% of proceeds were donated to Sylvia’s Place, a LGBTQ shelter for runaway and homeless queer youth in New York.

"The lesbian pulp novel, popular in the 1950's and 1960's, skirted the line between heterosexual fantasy and queer subversion—much like the I Heart Brooklyn Girls calendar itself. Though the genre played into the fears and desires of straight readers, it also dramatically increased queer visibility in bedrooms and bookshops all over the world. For 2011, we salute the outrageously provocative pulp over art of the mid-century by reclaiming it for the 21st century, Brooklyn-Girls style."
