This is brianspeak's fault
But it is fun, so participate.
It begins:
"INTERVIEW
1. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
2. I will respond by asking you five questions of a very intimate and creepily personal nature. Or not so creepy/personal.
3. You WILL update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions"
brianskpeak asked me, so far:
1. Where are you on the gender spectrum *I've never asked* If it's too personal then...question 2 is when r u comin back to t.dot
My response: Not too personal at all. I'm a female man. I have no intention of altering my body with surgery or hormones, but linguisitically (and seeing that gender is a socially constructed phenomenon) I like to move between 'he' and 'she' depending on the cultural circumstances. Mostly, I agree that the world sees me as female and allow them to do so, without any encouragement on my part. Some people who are better acculturated us 'he' when refering to me. My oldest friends (going back more than 25 years) call me brother.
2. When r u comin back to t. dot ?
I assume that means Toronto? Just left, in fact, a few hours ago. Coming back on Friday to get Johnny; we are in Buffalo this weekend.
