Hi Amber,

Thanks for the lengthy reply and editorial crit. You were right- so I went back and tightened it up.

I am speaking of myself and others like me as 'male women' bc I found peace in that realization. I fully subscribe to the POV that gender status [man or woman or androgyne or whatever descriptor is used] is fully independent of anatomical sex, given that it is

interactive.
