But for me this is not the case. I seem to get lost in every divide set out before me. And thus it is the same with the word stone.
I generally avoid this word to describe myself, for all the reasons stated above. The truth is, I don't really know if I am stone or not, for a variety of very complex reasons that have to do with a mix of identity and sexual history. im afraid if I tell partners I'm stone, they will expect something that I may not end up being. Im afraid if I tell them I'm not stone then they will violate boundaries in ways that are very real and hurtful.

exactly! Thanks for the post. It's hard to communicate boundaries when I'm not certain of them myself
