Language

Someone wrote…

Language is such a beautiful thing. It lets us define and describe and explain what we wish to share. But sometimes language is such an inconvenience. I am not a girl and I am not a boy. I am not straight, nor gay. Sometimes I want nothing more than to be the sexiest woman around, and sometimes I wish to death I was a man. Sometimes I wish we didn’t have language. And then I could just be me.

What’s your experience?

And what are you thinking about gender right now?

    Ever step aside for a moment and realize how many different words there are? It can be quite intimidating sometimes. Language can be burdensome.
