all this fuss about something i can't even define. the last while i've been looking at society, looking inside myself and trying to figure out what gender even *is.* i thought it might help me along the way to finding out what mine is.
"the way culture expects the sexes to behave" --- does that mean two "masculine" people of different cultures have different genders? perhaps.
or maybe it's something other than that. i havn't come to a satisfying conclusion.
i've gone through stages of claiming i have no gender. i think that's wrong, though. i *feel* like i have a gender, i just don't feel like that gender is particularly well-described by masculine or feminine. certain aspects of it are, i guess.
but if there are so many genders, what does/should gender have to do with physical sex? should they be completely unlinked?
i'll write more as words come for it.
