Your body has specific chromosomal 'markers' that tells it what role it will fulfill biologically... but that's not really what defines you.<br /><br />Your sense of self has no such marker, and unlike chromosomes, the 'gender' your SELF has is not binary at all.Soul Trainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16044940848806489860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-206694879804475041.post-63205454716698588082010-04-01T19:20:26.230-04:002010-04-01T19:20:26.230-04:00This was really helpful.

As someone who does not pass, and probably never will it is also hard to go to barber shops because they may not take you seriously when you ask for a "masculine" haircut and do a shitty job.
