If there was a thin line that connected the two genders, I would be a dot floating somewhere between the two, but untethered to the line altogether. It's the only way I can describe it. Articulating this feeling of existing in a hinterland outside of the binary is one of the greatest gifts the past few years has given me.[1] | » |
