Hmm. I've always liked to think that there's room for much complexity in every human being. Either that, or the entire human race is just weird. Take yer pick.
Also, if someone's more or less between very butch and very femme, I'm not sure why it would make more sense for one to move more towards one direction than towards the other. Change is change is change, and why does anyone change? Sometimes insecurity, but sometimes just for kicks, sometimes for mom and dad, sometimes for no reason at all. Also, from various groups, I've heard it argued that those who identify as FTM after a butch identity are just "confused" and that butch lesbians are "confused" FTM's - it probably goes without saying that I don't think any of that is true of everyone who identifies either way.
Just a few musings on butch/femmedom, FTM's, and gender ... because it's a topic I find interesting.
