A series of podcasts with some of the people who feature in Jac Lynch's photographic project Butch on Butch:
Butch on Butch is a tribute to the people among us whose masculinity defies social and gender norms. They may or may not identify as butch, but on a daily basis they are confronted by, enjoy or ignore others' view of them as such. Some of the people in this series of portraits claim "Butch" proudly; some want to do so even more loudly; and for others, it's just a label.
