Femme is a term for a lesbian who expresses herself in a traditionally feminine way. Borrowed from the French word for "woman," it became a recognized identity in mid-20th-century lesbian bar culture, often paired with "butch" in describing relationship dynamics. Femme identity can include clothing, makeup, and mannerisms associated with femininity, and it is embraced by many as a distinct and valid expression within queer culture.
