I hope this doesn't come out the wrong way, but...
Dear god, how many of youse guys are transgendered/ambiguiously gendered/whatever????
I'm now up to four people on my friends list (that I know of). And I love you all dearly, and want everyone to be as happy as is reasonably possible. I just didn't know so many of my friends were... whatever the word is (I'm still not sure about that). Kinda like when I realized so many of my friends were religious, but different. (Actually, it's a tossup about which surprised me more.)
I mean, I understand why so many of my friends are autists, because I actively seek out autistic friends. And I understand why so many of my friends are bi, because most people are. But I'm a bit surprised at the number of people who identify as transgendered/whatever. I understand vaguely why various people are trans, but I'm not sure how chance led me to have more trans friends than I realized. Unless my view on statistics was completely effed up.
Yeah, this did come out wrong. I mean more along the lines of "wow, I'm surprised, I wasn't expecting that" not "OMG! UR ALL FREKES!!!!1111oneoneeleventyone!!!1". Once the surprise at the numbers wears off, I'll be back to my normal non-caring benevolence.
Incidentally, if you want to tell me anything revelatory, now would be a good time.

Date: 2005-02-24 11:28 pm (UTC)I'm kinda-sorta bisexual, leaning towards gay. What this means functionally is that I'm most often attracted to guys, but do occasionally get attracted to women, though I'm not sure if I'd be able to function sexually with a woman. The idea kinda freaks me out. Not in an "EWGROSSOMG!!!ELEVEN111!!" way, though. More like in the scared way.
Gender-wise, I'm not even sure how to describe myself. Gender is more like a mood for me. I'll spend a period of time channeling Olympia Dukakis, then I'll swing the other way and be more like Destruction from the Sandman comics. At the moment I'm kind of in-between, which seems to be where I am most of the time.
