personally, i thought it was pretty cool.

i know a lot of you will counter-argue that there are only two genders, but i know many here believe otherwise.
i personally identify as male, but others who don't really focus on the gender binary would most likely enjoy that (or so i think).

I know there are a lot out there that believe in more than one gender but I don't. I just believe that there are only two genders but I do believe that we are not all the same. It is like there is black and white but then there are all the blends that go into the color scheme. It is not just the two colors but what the colors make what happens when something is added into the mix, like the rainbow. We are a blend of the two genders, each and every one of us. I know a lot of people want to make a label for all and every blend but I think that is impossible. You would have to make as many labels as there are people on this earth. Then there are those who want to add the sexual orientation into the mix. That is totally different. Just my thinking so I added my 2 cents worth into the mix.

It's kinda cute. And I won't argue that gender's only two things... I see "gender" as a social construct and as such differs in definitions between societies and allows for the construction of new version of gender so there's endless potential genders..
But that's just me.

Gender is BS. I like having short hair and a beard, and no tits. So I'm a guy. Or maybe I'm not. I don't care. I don't really like being called a girl, but if tomorrow I woke up and the world had abolished the gender binary, I can't imagine ever being happier.

Just because the majority of people are born as either male or female, it doesn't mean that's how everyone is as a person. It would be nice if we all had the leisure to be who we are and not be labeled.

Labels are necessary. They are means for communications. However, if we woke up and would no longer have labels imposed upon us, some against our will even, now That would be brilliant.
