Contemplating your gender with an air of heavy skepticism...
...is a serious mind-fuck. I recommend it, but with large flashing caveats attached. Not as good or happy as mushrooms, but cheaper, longer-lasting, and more likely to inculde guaranteed life-lessons.
...carries the same sort of purified, draining feeling you get after talking to a counsellor about somethig uncomfortable
...stands akin to the process of grieving: denial, anger, bargaining, despair, acceptance
...is a soul-searching exercise.
...confirms the value of individuality, and allows you to see yourself as a part of larger, mysterious social processes.
...gives you access to the secret genderqueer-radar - I'm not sure how this works, but it does - or at least I think it does. Keep in mind that I'm coming from the perspective of being bloody obvlivious, so maybe I'm just more relaxed now or something.
