Stone femme has been used to describe several different kinds of femme (feminine) identities, sometimes within a broader dyke identity or culture. People who identify as Stone femme have patterned the name for their identity after the more widely known term stone butch. A stone butch is a female-bodied person who is strongly masculine in character and dress, who is the "giver" in sexual interactions, and who does not wish to be touched genitally. Stone femme is used to describe a femme who is sexually receptive or who wishes not to touch the genitals of her partner
