Yes, it seems there's no set guidebook for androgyny due to the strong diversity. It's nearly as if we're a group of pre-school kids in a large candy shop, suggesting each other different flavours, and basically trying anything and everything realising we have plenty of corridors left to explore.

That's it exactly.  I wandered up and down the aisles, trying this, trying that, until I found something that seems to match who I am.  I am not locked into that candy, and I still try out others, but for now, that is the kind that works best.

......Laurry

To take that philosophy a tad further;

What we see is a ball made out of gold, but each single one of us views it from a different angle/perspective based on our culture, our background and our frame of reference. What we percieve it as is a product of introspection, yet that does not take away the fact that it is still a gold ball. It is the essence of who we are; Androgyne, and althought we may toggle our view (and expand our frame of reference) it will always differentiate from other's.

What?? Rules and regulations!!!! Entrance exams!!!!    I guess I can't be an androgyne anymore

Thats why I bought it, so I could pass the exam. Heard its a wickedly long test. And the regulations would rival any IRS tax code.

That and the cheat codes..... and the walk through of life.

Wow! And here I'd been thinking all along that being an androgyne was so easy. No rules, no laws, no regulations, just living as a free spirit following my heart! Oh well, I guess I was delusional.  You got an extra copy of that book? I better start studying, this androgyny is serious business.

Great... Pass the exams and get a BA (Batchelors of Androgany) and then stay on and get an MA (Masters of Androgany), get a PhD and then you can use the title Dr which is totally genderless... cool

Buffy

Dont worry zythyra, your honorable title "the Keening Quing" sufficiently is equivalent.

Dr. KK

hmmmm.

I'm really very shy, however once I get to know people, I do open up and really enjoy talking and getting to know people. Actually, truth be told, once I start talking, it's awfully hard to get me to stop <people glancing to see where the exits are, and whether they can politely leave> 


zythyra

Yeah I can relate to your paragraph above for the most part.

Ya and sometimes I say the wrong thing at the wrong time.

Quotehave noticed that it is often the androgynes who make the tend to veer off topic, something that can be seen throughout the forum.

It's just that we're relating them to ten other topics simultaneously.

Years ago I wrote a tune called "Goin' Round the Barn", referring to my tendency to... um... ramble. I hate when I've gotten so far off topic that I can't remember what the heck my point was for veering off 


zythyra, aka the keening quing

Yeah I get off topic too and that I tried to get back on topic with the person I'm talking too sometimes and it just ruins the whole flow of the conversation about the original topic.

BTW, I like your avator(I think its called)or picture that you use on your all posts with the person with the long dark hair and the Dr. Spock ears.

Thanks Dr KK!

BTW, the rule book for keening quings isn't exactly easy either

Thanks Chillin! I hadn't related the ears as being like Spock, sort of thought of them as being elvish.
