What 's ya say?

I prefer to think of the spectrum analogy.
Reminds me of the first time I played trivial pursuit (yep, dating myself again). I got the question 'how many colors are in the rainbow?' Thought to myself, well, most of them! I was dismayed the official answer was seven, then I remember my old friend Roy G. Biv (a mnemonic for red-orange-yellow-green-blue-indigo-violet). Guess I'm not very good at getting the 'right' answer!!

Goodness sakes. Haven't heard from you in a long time. Pleasant surprise I must say. I hope you are well.
It is in the eyeballs I think, not the other ones. There _are_ seven primary colors, but no end of shades.
Yeppers.
All the best and more,
Natasha

Oh I see, trying to be a killjoy, huh? LOL
Sure. Why not have them in there too. I did say all of them.
Andi, now and always a smartass LOL
I'm hanging in there. Working too hard, but only 'cuz I haven't won the lottery yet. :)
My career goal is to be a philanthropist. *giggle*

Hi sweety!
A philanthropist? Me too! The lack of funds thing though. I have the same problem. But hey, you can always give away a little loving encouragement though. Obviously you know that one real well Glenn. :)
So glad I know you,
Natasha
FWIW I am perfectly happy with the two gender paradigm.
If other want to be 3rd, 4th (or whatever) genders that is fine for them. I myself don't really care to move in such circles, or to be gender variant myself. (Not that there's anything wrong with that!!)

I hear you, but is it a matter of what we want or are even willing to accept really? Gender variant people always have, and always will, exist. I suppose you can agree with that can't you?
Personally, I don't believe they have a choice in the matter either. They can choose to repress their natural inclinations, try to be something they are not and be miserable, or they can dare to be themselves.
Really, I found the "old days" 50's - early 70's, boring, and as well those were tough times for women. Times were rough for females, because the rules for men have always granted them far greater freedom.
What do you think? :)
Dont worry Tasha,
I am not into strict gender roles. I just meant that I am happy being a regular girl. That has absolutely nothing to do with the things I like to do. Some thing I do might be construed as tomboyish or masculine, but other things would be unabiguously feminine. But regarldess, I do things because I like to do them, not to fit any role or stereotype.
That being said, I do like to look and feel feminine when the mood hits me. But then again I do so because I like to, and for no other reason.
And yes, if it had been up to me, I would have been born a normal XX female as opposed to pais XY.

We have been friends now, for what, 3 years? So I know that dear, and you know I do.
I don't understand why you are defending yourself. I never meant to imply anything to the contrary. I was speaking of the over all state of things is all.
Hi! Meresa, hope your doing well, and what is that a picture of under your name?? What ever it is it looks like it is under water.
Hi Jules,
It is a picture of me underwater. I recently did a 3-day underwater photo shoot in Key West. Lotsa fun.
