Although our founder identifies as a femme lesbian, she feels that lesbian women, no matter their chosen label, need a forum to gather and express themselves. She believes that what you wear doesn’t necessarily define you, but rather, a person’s character and values should serve as their driving force. The founder also has many close friends who identify as dominant masculine lesbian women and wanted to create an organization inspired by these same women.
