3. I had not read the article before you pushed me to do so. Appropriately, I must add.

It brings up many of the complications involved in this area. As I stated above, I cannot imagine what it's like to be faced with this.

I can only state this in my defense. My oldest son has Asperger's, so he's always been different that way.

In addition, he lost all of his hair to alopecia areata when he was four years old. His younger brother went bald at the age of ten. Alopecia isn't remotely like what the article discusses. I'm only bringing it up to suggest I have a small clue as to what those with the gender issues have. But only a small clue.

Being bald is nothing compared to gender ambiguity or gender anomalies or gender anything else.

I was born in a female body, have always been quite content to be female, I'm heterosexual so I conform to gender stereotypes. Which means that in many ways I haven't a clue about various other things. I sincerely hope I'm open and understanding of many differences.
