A discussion in this forum made me ask myself this question, what's gender?. I googled it but what I found there didn't make much sense to me. I always thought that the gender of the other person doesn't tell me much about who they are. It just informs me about the appropriate pronouns that this person wants me to use with them. Frankly I don't care about figuring out my gender. I was born in a woman's body and I never felt like it's the wrong one. I think I'd feel the same if I was born in a man's body. I have never spent time thinking about this part of myself because I never thought that it's important enough to me. I'll be the same person anyway, no? I don't think it would change much about who I am... Can anyone share how they understand gender?
Funny is that dozens of replies have been written here and I still don't really have a clear idea what gender is haha. But definitely bit clearer than before.
I suppose it's only to be expected, it's more like asking what is autism than it is like asking what are shoes?!
I'm a hybrid btw - espadrille, wellie, brogue, rigger and slipper.
And you?
Leather toe-capped suede boots and oxfords(from time to time)
I'd like to be comfy trainers, but am actually worn out old boots with holes in. But the boots are purple and decorated with pictures of cats.
