'''Femme''' is a term used in [[LGBT+]] subculture to describe someone, typically a lesbian or otherwise [[sapphic]] woman, who has a [[feminine]] gender [[Gender Presentation|presentation]]. The term can refer to any LGBT+ femininity, but often refers to overblown and/or outwardly atypical femininity. |

Femmes will often dress in feminine clothing, and typically present themselves in a more stereotypically feminine way, such as having long hair and wearing makeup. Femmes are also commonly thought of as having more "feminine" interests. However, femmes often subvert cultural expectations of femininity or show femininity in a uniquely [[LGBT+]] way, as opposed to cishets. Some [[Transmasculine|transmasculine]] femmes may not take certain steps associated with transmasculine transition, such as going on [[Hormone Replacement Therapy|testosterone]]. Femmes can be [[cisgender]], [[transgender]], or any other [[Gender Modality|gender modality]]. Femme can also be used by [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] people. |

Femme men often use the spelling "fem," which is simply the older version of "femme" and was also used by LGBT+ women before "femme" became common. When said out loud, the terms sound identical. Femme men are associated with highly exaggerated feminine style and manner, which is often a reclamation of the derogatory association of SGA men with femininity. Some femme men enjoy drag, and other have a more subdued but clearly feminine style. The infamous "gay accent" is associated with, but not always used by, these men. |

Traditionally, femmes have been expected to be attracted to [[Butch|butches]]. For some femmes, this attraction to butches represents a strong part of their own identity. However, some femmes are attracted to other femmes. This is sometimes referred to as "fem-for-fem" or "femme-for-femme." |

Femme is a term used in LGBT+ subculture to describe someone, typically a lesbian or otherwise sapphic woman, who has a feminine gender presentation. The term can refer to any LGBT+ femininity, but often refers to overblown and/or outwardly atypical femininity.
Femmes will often dress in feminine clothing, and typically present themselves in a more stereotypically feminine way, such as having long hair and wearing makeup. Femmes are also commonly thought of as having more "feminine" interests. However, femmes often subvert cultural expectations of femininity or show femininity in a uniquely LGBT+ way, as opposed to cishets. Some transmasculine femmes may not take certain steps associated with transmasculine transition, such as going on testosterone. Femmes can be cisgender, transgender, or any other gender modality. Femme can also be used by non-binary people.
Femme men often use the spelling "fem," which is simply the older version of "femme" and was also used by LGBT+ women before "femme" became common. When said out loud, the terms sound identical. Femme men are associated with highly exaggerated feminine style and manner, which is often a reclamation of the derogatory association of SGA men with femininity. Some femme men enjoy drag, and other have a more subdued but clearly feminine style. The infamous "gay accent" is associated with, but not always used by, these men.
Traditionally, femmes have been expected to be attracted to butches. For some femmes, this attraction to butches represents a strong part of their own identity. However, some femmes are attracted to other femmes. This is sometimes referred to as "fem-for-fem" or "femme-for-femme."
