I wonder, a lot of the time, what it would be like if I were born a boy. Would I be happier? Relieved from this feeling to over-masculinize myself to combat the more obvious feminine features... The "girl" voice "Girl" body "Girl" hair "Girl" name "Girl" demeanor "Girl" "Girl" "Girl" Baby "Girl" ... What if I were born a baby "Boy" Well then, that wouldn't make it any better, now would it. Then it would all be, "Boy" "Boy" "Boy" "Boy" demeanor "Boy" name "Boy" hair "Boy" body "Boy" voice So, even if my chromosomes were lost an X, had a Y instead, I would still be bound to the same fate. The same hurt that is gender dysphoria. Society- or, God?- has only made two categories, two choices two sexes two lives two boxes. I wonder, then, what it would be like if that wasn't so.
