As I've posted before, where does this gender/sex duality leave the GLBT community? <BR/><BR/>I'm male but my brain works in some traditionally feminine ways. Some of my lesbian friends act in traditionally male ways. In my case at least, I can't say that I was socialized to think this way. Or maybe I was--but by whom? Or is it just more or less hormones that someone else? Or is there some genetic switch that gets flipped (or doesn't)? Even within the GLBT community, there's quite a range of diversity.<BR/><BR/>I guess all this talk about male/female helps people figure things out. But I think it just puts people into confining categories that are eventually used against us. It's only when we can't explain differences so neatly that we have to see each person simply for who they are. I am not my gender identity, my hormones or my sexual orientation. I am simply me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
