Hey, if you got issues with your inner gay, I'm prolly not the one to talk with about it.

...but you have a point. They're not equivalent, but they are related as far as I see it. Wink

Perhaps. All I know is I'm technically "straight" and don't have a gender and it's always "fun" trying to explain this to people I wish to have sex with Tongue

How can you not have a gender? All the cool kids have one. Thinking

I'd argue that neutral does not describe a huge portion of genderqueer folks. I think adding "genderqueer" would have been enough, or "other".


And fuck the cool kids, Cantor. I don't have one because... it's not there? :3

Being able to describe my gender as Spacecowboy may be a reality sooner than I had hoped!

Neither is meaning nor purpose. Tongue
