To Cherish

Someone wrote…

My gender used to be very private. A warm secret I liked to keep to myself and pull out in the quiet, dark of my person. It was something I cherished, holding it near me and wanting no one else to see.

Now, I feel as if I want to tell the world. So I can be perceived in the way I want to be, while still keeping my true gender all to myself.

What’s your experience?

And what are you thinking about gender right now?

    I know your feelings all too well. I have hid mine all of my life! Now, I wish to find someone like me and live a little more openly.
