and still lived life from day one as a female. and i still see life thru a womans eye. and i honor value and appreciate womans song. so... yes. i identify with man. i also am woman. i am bivisual/vocal

oh, btw. the characterizations of being a man is only societies definition. not the reality of being man, being woman. because you and i process information, or though, or feeling in what would be categorized as male, does not make it so. and that is the reason i want to bust all these stereotypes. i am woman. that is who i am. why does a man get to own that when it is not exclusively male? cause it is admired, it is given to male.

like strength.

want to see strength? watch women all thru their lives raising their kids, protecting, providing. i see women of strength all ove rthe fuckin place. i mean, huge emotional strength that would bring some men to their knees. yet men get the adjective.... strength as a descriptive. bullshit.
