The Wrong Side of the Wall

Someone wrote…

Sometimes I wonder if my gender view isn’t the plain binary one, and the only problem is that I am on the wrong side of the wall…

What’s your experience?


And what are you thinking about gender right now?

    Well that’s pretty much me. Transitioning fit me like a glove ;)
    Though I wouldn’t say I’m super-feminine or anything!

    I don’t nor can I say I have ever felt “binary”. The simplest way to define what I have experience gender as is “multidimensional”. Some parts woman, some parts man, many parts neither. Internally, I always felt I was a female, or that something was wrong with being male. My body map is female, and I transition to attain balance with that, but me being feminine just seems like more of a coincidence than a consequence. I think human nature is intent on making black and white binaries where none exist.
