A word derived from the words stud and femme used in the lesbian community to describe a woman who is boyish but in a very feminine way. Stemmes usually dress more feminine than their stud counterparts but are more butch than their femme counterparts.
Stemme, however, may be descriptive of how much emotionality and sensitivity a lesbian has versus how they choose to dress.
Stemme falls under the concept of androgyny as does stud, futch (a femme whose a bit butch), butch, soft butch, etc...
As far as femininity goes:
Femme>Stemme>Futch>Soft Butch> Stud

Person 1: Look at that girl, she looks like a dude with all those guy clothes on, she has to be a stud
Person 2: Well she was wearing girly clothes yesterday, so I thought she was a femm
Person 3: Actually she's a stemm, she's wears boy clothes sometimes, and girl clothes other times

A school where the teachers get to fail students just because “it’s a smart kid school” when in reality it’s a place where kids get horrible grades and get kicked out of clubs they paid 20$ to get into due to those bad grades, and it is also a breeding ground for snobs who flex the fact that they got into a smart kid school.
