9. "Damn your eyes." --Dr. Frederick Frankenstein

I am convinced the following is true, thus...

"We're trained to see only male or female and to plot people into those categories when they actually don't fit neatly at all. But if we pause, watch and listen closely we'll see the multiplicity of ways in which people are sexed and gendered. There exists a range of personal identifications around woman, man, in-between--we don't even have names or pronouns that reflect that in between place but people certainly live in it."
--Minnie Bruce Pratt

how about a compromise and we settle for
"in- between"?
