I feel like much of the world is in a social war over what gender is and is not.

I don’t feel that its my place to tell someone else what gender is. I believe that gender identity is something that an individual has to figure out for themselves. The being said, based on my personal experience with understanding my own gender identity, I can tell you what gender is not.

Gender is not the same as your sexuality. Gender does not have to define your sexuality. Gender and sexuality are two different subjects.

Gender has nothing to do with your genitalia. Gender is not defined by a doctor, despite what’s on your birth certificate. Gender identity is more of spectrum of variable options, instead of a binary with only two options.

Gender Identity & Gender Expression are not the same thing. Gender identity is part of the mental and emotional understanding of yourself. Gender expression is your style, how you’re most comfortable presenting to the outside world.

It is my belief that somewhere through out history, things like gender identity, gender expression, genitalia & sexuality somehow got all wrapped up into one single category called gender. However, it is also my belief that the people in this world are changing. Growing into a much more colorful way of thinking and understanding.

I hope the day will come when the majority will know gender to be a personal understanding of ones self, instead of an outward understanding of everyone else.

can we just talk about how zendaya looks good ALL THE TIME IN ANY OUTFIT AND WITH ANY HAIRSTYLE. I envy her beauty so hard.

I I met a girl, and she was so beautiful. She was a painting in a golden frame the kind that hang in galleries and last for centuries and are loved for centuries and get called timeless stunning treasures. II I knew a girl, and she was so fascinating. She was a foreign concept and I didn’t quite understand but I wanted to and I tried to and she was all the more impressive for it. III I knew a girl, and she was so smart. She was a book or an idea or a poem full of passion and thought and a spark that tried like hell to hide itself but shone brighter than anything I’d seen. IV I knew a girl, and she was so broken. She was a mosaic shaped like a human with pieces like a mirror so I could see myself reflected and think it wasn’t possible because she was so much more than I could be. V I know a girl, and she is extraordinary. I cannot help but think she is art, like the universe’s personal masterpiece and I got to witness her firsthand and feel like maybe I could be art too.
