Getting Rid of Flippant Language : Check Yourselves Here

Nat · 02-22-2016, 07:36 PM

Female doesn't bother me. I don't refer to people generally as male or female, but working with medical data all day I am much more irked when there isn't a third choice than I am by the terms. I don't identify as a woman nearly as much as I identify as a femme. As a bigender person, I feel slightly annoyed checking the box for female, but I would be more annoyed if I had to check a box that said "woman." Like - my femme side balks at having a gender applied to me that I generally don't apply to myself outside of discussions about women's rights.
