That does not mean that I'm abandoning those who live in an in-between or conceding to a one-true-way in which we are forced to live in a binary and be either fully female or fully male. It also doesn't mean that I'm allowing ideological bullies push me into making a life-changing decision based on their indignant and bigoted puritanism. I've simply come to realize that the in-between path is not one that I personally can travel and be fulfilled.
