In the 1969 novel The Left Hand of Darkness, author Ursula K. Le Guin
contrives a world inhabited by a genderless population, a sort of
middle sex who only become either male or female when they are, shall
we say – courting. Her imaginings, one of the first to articulate
gender as fluid and relational, according to a recent issue of OUT
magazine, explores the broad possibilities for a world in which people
are human first – then male or female.

I guess it's nice to make believe, but it doesn't do any good for those of us stuck in real life.  I wish I could just crack open my own head and allow my soul to go it's own way. Maybe it would settle into some body that is more fitting.
