Androgyny and sexuality.

Someone wrote…

I was describing myself on an online forum, and I said, “I’m a girl, but I’m androgynous.” Unwillingly, I started a gender fight, and I didn’t mean to. I never thought being androgynous was a big deal; it is just the perfect adjective to describe me. Now I’ve discovered androgyny, and I finally feel justified in my desire to shave my head and wear swimming trunks instead of bikinis. I’m probably one of the lucky androgynes, as I have a pretty androgynous-looking body […] I identify as a lesbian, but how am I supposed to be a lesbian if I’m not a female in gender? So I don’t really identify with either. Because I really feel like no gender (or gender-neutral) and am attracted to only women. […] I’m glad I found this website. It’s helped open my mind quite a bit.

How has your gender influenced how you identify sexually?

And what are you thinking about gender right now?
