In 2015 we’ve met or got reacquainted with some extremely hot masculine-of-center women or otherwise-identified queers. Here’s 10 sexy studs worth swooning over.
10. Miki Vargas
via twitter
She’s a photographer who takes amazing wedding photos, portraits of butches, and more. In 2015, in addition to taking some of the most wonderful pictures of queer nuptials, she documented the evolution of masculinity in the Handsome Revolution Project. I wonder if the smiles she gets are from the moment, or from her adorable face.
9. Deanne Smith
via twitter
A Canadian-American comedian whose timely LGBTQ jokes make me gigglesnort. Deanne’s 2015 performance at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival solidified her place as a seriously funny comedian, and one to watch in the new year. I really want to get lifted and watch Friends with her. I think it would be an amazing time.
8. Siya
via Metrolyrics
Siya’s work to transcend the rapper stereotype is evident on Sisterhood of Hip Hop, and in season 2 she shared her strength and courage to be who she is, inspiring us all. I once had a dream that I had a threesome with this entertainer and Samira Wiley in Siya’s mansion. Each night I try to relive said dream.
7. Jess Voss

Jess Voss showed us this year that being dapper is a lifestyle, and that embracing fashion is always okay. A model to watch, she was featured in Dapper Q’s He Said/ We Said not only for her clean aesthetic but her entrepreneurial skill. A spiffy San Francisco bar owner who sells wine on tap, yummy burgers, and more. Def on my next place to visit while in the Bay.
6. Alison Bechdel
via Out Magazine
We’ve loved Alison Bechdel’s comic Dykes To Watch Out For long time, and this year she’s not only taken it to Broadway with Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic, the musical won five Tony Awards. She’s been on my crush list for ages, and her preppy style has been and will continue to be an inspiration for others in the coming year.
5. Amber

Amber, host of Amber’s Closet, entertains us weekly, amassing over half a million views with snapshots of her life, her style, and her relationships. She collaborated with queer favs like Ari Fitz, Hart, and Miles Jai this year, and keeps us educated, laughing, and crushing. Honestly, I had so many happy lesbian feels for Amber and Kiarra (model and Amber’s ex) – I hoped that they would be together forever, but they broke up this year. Kiarra is still my fitspiration, and I’ll be watching to see who Amber has on her arms next.
4. Samira Wiley
Sophy Holland/DIVA magazine
What a sweet, sweet Poussey. Besides showing us her amazing acting chops, looking stellar on the red carpet, and gal palin’ around with Lauren Morelli this year, she’s shown us that being yourself always pays off. Those innocent eyes, that anxious smile, and her internal flame makes me wish I was on lockdown at Lichfield.
3. Wen Liu

Wen Liu, Co-Founder of the Hey Queer Project wowed us this year with beautiful images of queer Asian beauty, and tons of thought-provoking introspection. I wish I could share ice cream with her in the Mission. I’d get salted caramel and order her a Rocky Road.
2. Ruby Rose

Ruby Rose’s boobs were all over our tubes in 2015. I don’t know of a single woman who hasn’t fantasized about Ruby Rose at least once. When I do, I’m Piper before she lost her innocence and naivety, and she’s a little meaner and less shady.
1. AzMarie Livingston
Kirsten Miccoli Photography
I’ve been crushing on her since America’s Next Top Model: British Invasion, and I live for the stolen moments in Empire that she pops in for a line or two. A model and actress, I’m excited to see what’s on her agenda in 2016.
LYN THIS LIST IS SO GOOD!
Thank you! I hope you understood that I’d like to have sex with most of the women on this list.
Because, I would.
Because, yum.
That would not make me a nasty girl. Don’t judge me.
Naughty?
Or very very nice???!!!
What can I say? I WAS on Mrs. Claus’ naughty list for many years running.
*super innocent wink*
This post put such a big smile on my face. Butches. Mmm.
Happy to make you smile! Who is your favorite?
Oh! My!
Thanks for this list.
But who dis Alison Bechdel????? yum
I’ve been listening to Deanne Smith’s podcast for a while now and just fell in like with her. She’s funny as fuck and she replies on twitter!
Damn.
I got to Ruby Rose and was shocked they weren’t number one. And then I saw AzMarie Livingston. Where has that girl been all my life?
AzMarie confirmed my fate as a blushing femme forever attracted to androgyny. She is worthy of worship.
Even though Ruby Rose identifies as genderfluid she’s stated that she uses she/her pronouns.
Tomboy attracted to tomboys here and this post has me like, life goals or wife goals??
Why not both? I hear some of them are single… ;D
Yep
You know who I was expecting to see here? Alicia Cargile
Love me some Alicia………
come back to us alicia
Samira Wiley is so beautiful. I know she has a girlfriend, but can she be my gal pal?
Butches are my favorite flavor. So sexy! We need more of them in my area.
Oh, and I am not a Ruby Rose fan…I might be the only one.
nope, I am way over the hype. centering white MOC queers as objects of collective desire is not my jam generally and ruby rose in particular, I am over the collective hype. I miss when she was just in that one gender-swappy video and everybody was like WOW but now she is just everywhere and I don’t care.
Seconded.
I’m not one, either. She’s rather overrated.
I have a huge crush on Deanne smith and Samira Wiley. this list is just what I needed.
Everyone on this list is so swoon-worthy!
hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahalolololololololololololololollololol∂∂ƒ†˙œå∑´®†™£¢∞§¶¶§§§§§§§§§§§§
Oh my, I looooove this article! Already crushing on some new sexy faces! :3
Thanks so much for this!
*Bookmarks this for future…ahem, reference* :P
This list is awesome! I would have included Dred Carpenter or Nola Lookalive, but damn, hot hot hot.
Samira Wiley, hells yes!
I don’t know who some of these women are. :( What about Abby Wambach?
AzMarie…swooooooooooooning hard. And when did Alison Bechdel become a stone cold fox? When did that happen?
omg AzMarie Livingston, Ruby Rose and Samira Wiley are drop dead Gorg.
This is vital. Merry christmas to all. I took a pic of alison bechdel to the hairdresser to get my first alternative lifestyle haircut(TM) this year. and samira wiley has been consistently lighting up my year. her instagram is a gift.
It’s a first seeing some of these women. I honestly had no idea what Allison Bechdel looked like.
It’s refreshing to see AZ Marie on the list I’m in love with her.
Thank you for this. ?
Hi Lyn! I would 100% get lifted and watch Friends with you. Next time I’m in Melbourne?
Wow, what an “A” list. To bad they didn’t have stuff like this when I was a young stud. Things have changed so amazingly awesome it leaves my chin on the floor and my eyes soaking up every beautiful thing I see. I am super behind the times is there more of this kinda stuff around?
Figure out how much air an individual Iso certification in basra can take into his lungs.
With this exceptional stone cold leather vest, it’s time to dazzle everyone. The interior of the Stone Cold skull vest is lined with viscose and is constructed entirely of leather.
very nice post keep it going
Superb! Want to see more interesting posts from you.
