'''Femme''' is a term used in [[lesbian]] and [[gay]] subculture to describe an [[LGBT+]] person, typically a lesbian or otherwise [[sapphic]] woman who has a [[feminine]] gender [[Gender Presentation|presentation]]. Femme people will often dress in feminine clothing, and typically present themselves in a more stereotypical feminine way, such as having long hair, and wearing makeup. Femmes are also commonly thought of as having more "feminine" interests. However, femme people often subvert cultural expectations of femininity or show femininity in a uniquely [[queer]] way, as opposed to [[cishet]] women. Femme women can be [[cisgender]], [[transgender]], or any other [[Gender Modality|gender modality]]. Femme can also be used by [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] people. |
