Stone Femme
Stone Femme (StoneFemme) is a term often used within lesbian communities.
To say someone is stone is to say that that person does not permit sexual touch, esp. penetrative, upon their person. In other words, if a stone person is having partnered sex they would be the pitching, not the catching, partner. (See Stone Butch)
In common usage, Stone Femme has two quite different definitions:
1) Femme-who-is-stone
2) femme-of-a-stone-butch*.
The grammatical parallel structure of stone femme / stone butch would logically indicate that the femme, like the butch, is uninterested in receiving sexual touch. Thus, femme-who-is-stone.
*The other possible meaning, femme-of-a-stone-butch, simultaneously implies a denial of the possibility that a femme might be stone (by supplanting the parallel term with an identical term with an opposite meaning), and if read the right way, implies a type of relationship ownership, as in "Mrs Stonebutch". This meaning is deprecated.

Mary was the kind of aggressive Stone Femme who made all the non-stone butches want to fling their legs in the air for her, although many of the bolder women had hopeless and unspoken dreams of one day returning the favour.
