Settles down on you.

Someone wrote…

Although I love all things queer, sometimes I just wish for something as simple as pink or blue. Maybe identity is not so much a location you find between points as much as it is a place you settle down until you can’t stand it anymore, or maybe it’s a place that swoops around and settles down on you. Right now I’m hoping it’ll all settle soon, at least for a little while.

What’s your experience?

And what are you thinking about gender right now?

    I totally agree. I’m going crazy being in-between, but I also know I’m not happy at either extreme. As much as I want to just find a box and stick to it, it doesn’t work.
