    The futch flag.

    Not to be confused with fuchs.

    Futch is a term use to describe a lesbian, bisexual, or otherwise sapphic woman (or feminine-aligned non-binary person) who presents with a mix of feminine (femme) and masculine (butch) traits. They typically dress and present themselves in a way that is gender neutral or androgynous, not going too far towards masculine or feminine, or they may present more strongly femme sometimes and more strongly butch other times. Futch people can be cisgender or transgender.

    Other Terms

    The term "chapstick lesbian" is typically synonymous with futch, and is based on the term "lipstick lesbian".

    Lipgloss Lesbian

    Someone who is in between butch and femme but leans more towards femme.

    Stem

    A stem is a form of futchness that is specific to black women. It is in between femme and stud. Stud is a term dedicated to Black women in particular, and is seen as cultural appropriation for non-Black people to adopt the term. Butch is a non-racial term, making futch a better alternative to stem.
