We are whatever gender we are inside, but that seems like it could change over time, or change as a function of one’s mood perhaps. Since psychology became well-known we have all these internal things they had us learn in 101, the ego, the super-ego, the id, and all that stuff, and the professors told us about having a feminine side if we thought of ourselves as male. It was then that I discovered my feminine side is a lesbian. Both sides of us like women. We are that way, always been that way, no need for us to repent or get religion to make it go away.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>So when it comes right down to it, how can any of us really know what the heck is our gender?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I have a plan however.
