Okay, you guys are amazing.

Wow, I just got hit with a bunch of rich, incredible thoughts from the new Share form. You floor me.

Here are some of the things you’re saying:

I wish I could wear skirts and high heels on a daily basis without having to worry about gender. I wish I had breasts.

A very smart guy I know, once told me he had spent some time speculating what a third gender might be like — not an in-between or androgynous gender, but a new third corner to the graph with characteristics that were recognizably neither male nor female. He confessed it was hard going, but the nearest he had been able to come up with was “cat-boy”.

Can you imagine a third gender?

I wish I could morph between genders and I also wish more people would see that my gender is not straightforward.

I like my body, but I wish it expressed my gender identity.

What are you thinking about gender right now?

    Amazing. I’ve been so lonely for the company of others like me and POOF! here they are.

    That quote about a “third gender” is what I have been wondering about. Does anyone have a gender like that? Not having to do with masculine or feminine, but something entirely different?
