    Im just wondering... where would you guys place 'SHANE' from the l word on the scale of femme to hardcore butch? 1-10?

    Im just wondering because I'm trying to find a way to describe my type to people... and i know this is cliche' because everybody likes shane... but i really feel like she is the perfect mix of feminine and masculine that i like...

    Also how butch would you consider Ellen, because she's probably about as butch as I could find myself attracted to...

    (&&&)

    please discuss

    I personally wouldn't consider Shane to be butch, but not femme either. I guess Shane has a sort of inbetween (butch/femme, not male/female), tomboy aesthetic to her. Mostly she just looks like a 2000s skateboarder, which is exactly what she is.

    I'd call her style "androgynous"
