| The whole "I don't label myself; some people call me 'he', some people call me 'she'" thing is all well and good, but we live in a culture which forces people towards one or t'other gender pole, and anyone attempting to forge an identity which lies between these is going to have to develop a thick skin: No-Gender-Label toilets, for example, are thin on the ground, and "manbeast" comments depressingly likely. I wish Sam all the best, but suspect that, if she's to have a cat in Hell's chance of sustaining her current "I'm just Sam" gender-identification, she'll have to become a lot more psychologically robust than currently appears to be the case. |
