Yesterday I was watching a program called "Genre:Unknown" on Tlc or something of the sort. It concerned hemaphrodites. There was a Person on the show that had been assigned the female role in life, but was thinking of reassigning to the male gender, although she had taught herself, andsociety had taguth her to be feminine. She was a lesbian, but often doubted if she shoudl be female because of this.

I guess my rants on the matter as as follows. First off this proves to me that love has nothing to do with gender, an intersexed person can CHOOSE which sex that they desire to ..desire. Love has nothing to do with sex, relgion, race.. and whatnot. You fall in love with, who you fall in love with, and if society didn't have such guidelines on whats acceptable and what isn't. I bet we'd all be a little bit more comfortable with our sexuality.

Also, I see no reason to pressure parents to CHOOSe a gender. Personally, I wish I hadn't had the feminine views forced upon me, I wish I and all people were allowed to grow up and like what they liked because they liked it, and not because it was the girly thing to do, or because it was acceptable.

I'm not sure if everythign I needed to say got said. Oftentimes, my thoughts exceed my typing. I just wanted to see if anyone else out there agreed.
