This is just a quick question I was wondering about. Its 7:44am right now here, and of the 5 people on the entire forums, 4 of them are regulars on the Androgyne section
Ken/Kendra, Kiera, me, and LaurieO. I would hope people sleep sometime.

Is it just chance that we're all up right now. Yes I suppose now its early enough for people to be going to work but still 4 out of 5 are representing significantly in the Androgyne section. Its random I know. Don't answer it if you don't want to. Just thought that was noteworthy.

I'm sorry but I've got a bed that needs me now. And I shall keep it waiting no longer.

We also have international members from around the world, and time zones differ.

TS you are really opposite of your birth sex (or if intersexed  you pick one opposite of the one you had been living as). Your life would be more polar. Gender is how your mental "sex" really should be. A bigender person could be ts, but most transsexuals desire to remove most or even all of the birth sex.  A bigendered ts would have to sort of feel some part of their birth sex is still a part of them, and have it be separate that comes out occasionally where they leave behind their transitioned sex, and return to their birth sex for a period of time, having a fully accepted and desired second gender in themselves. And it would have to be fully accepted that that birth sex is a good and natural part of themelves.

Now I think your more referring to how at some point you possess both male and female appearance, mannerism, voice, physique, anatomy, and maybe roles. This is more of a transitional period and although those may be qualities they possess, it isnt how they are inside. The gender is how they are inside, which is the end physical sex they are becoming.

So they can be theoretically bigendered (there may be a few). But most that I have read are not. 

A ts may have apparent similar but are in fact very different activities. A TS may 'act' one false gender for work sake, or for visiting children until going "full time". But make no mistake, the acting the other gender is not desired, but rather a necessity. Where as a bigender person, it is just a natural part of their gender (which is made up of two desired and natural genders) that constantly are seperate, but fully real, yet the two don't meet. And living in the two genders is desired and a long term thing (maybe permanent for life). And when your in your cross gender, it will develop and become fuller. And being a gender thing, its about what is inside, not how you look.

I dont speak for transsexuals, but this is my current understanding and what I have heard, so if I am wrong, feel free to point the error out.

Hi Kiera,
Yes been Bi-gender is or can be very confusing. For one period of time (could be minutes, hours or days) I am totally female and than totally male.  First I thought I was a crossdresser than a transgender person (thats when I thought He was't real, or me).
My wife says I flip back and forth in a instant.
I have repressed (Me, Jillieann) female part of me for years and now we are getting to know each other.
Did you ever see the movie "All of Me" (I think that was the name) staring Steve Martin and Lily Tomlin?
So if you think it's confusing from the outside.
:) :)
Jillieann, JR

I guess I'm in the other category.  I am naturally a night owl, and tend to be up too late on a regular basis.  Last night, it was work that kept me up all night...life during "on call" can be sleepless at times.

I finally got to sleep this morning around 7am my time...tonight will probably be about the same, so I will look for y'all then.

Ken/Kendra, nice job on explaining the difference between TS and Androgyne.  It makes perfect sense to me, but then, I'm an Andrygyne too, so what do I know?

See y'all later tonight (or in the morning for you earlybirds)

Ya put your right foot in.  You put your right foot out.  You put your right foot in and you shake it all about.  You do the Andro-gyney and you turn yourself around.  That's what it's all about.
