Awareness needs to be raised about this subject!
I know how it feels to be confused and misunderstood. I know how it feels to constantly wonder where it is you fit in. Like there's no one in the world you can relate you and you're all alone.
You're not.


"Pangender is a term for people who feel that they cannot be labeled as male or female in gender.
Pangendered people feel that they do not fit into binary genders, instead identifying as mixed gender (both male and female).
Whereas sex refers to someone's anatomy, gender refers either to gender identity or gender role, which are roles and qualities that society associates with being either men or women.
In some cases, pangender individuals are born with the physical sex characteristics of either males or females, but frequently display the cases, outward appearance, behavior and/or clothing of the opposite gender.
Pangender individuals are happy living "in between" and have no desire to live exclusively as one gender or the other."

  • (cont) ...females really are a certain way and males really are a certain way and these other people called genderqueer aren't like how people are normally.

    However, we cant deny the presence of these biases and expectations of gender in our society now. For the moment, genderqueer identities help those who have distinct issues with the biases that continue exist and allow them to find others who feel similarly.

    In short, genderqueer may not be not the best step, but it's a step forward.

  • I've recently decided that I identify with pangender and feel I need to respond to the previous argument:

    I don't agree with the idea of gender; I think it's ignorant considering how far our society has evolved and basically a vestigial organ from when humans live in a state of nature and gender roles are needed for survival. The idea of gender roles and identity now subverts equality amongst the sexes by basically continuing the idea that....(cont.)

  • CM,

    I can be a lighthearted individual, given the right time or circumstances,

    but when it comes to issues of gender, I NEVER kid around.

    Our time as a society is running out too fast for me to engage in

    humourous chat on a detrimentally serious subject.

    Moreover, I figured you were being just as serious as I.

    Do you even KNOW what my views ARE? Have you been paying attention?

    My previous response to you came from a place of humor. I guess I thought we had reached a point of progress into accepting differences. My Fault. I tend to like to assume the GOOD in people. And your so quick to assume the bad. I pity you.

    This is where I get off this hamster wheel we've been running on. I should have known better than to take the bait in the first place. I'm not into beating my head against brick walls.

    CM, Signing out.

  • @FinalJusticeMovement

    I don't see you jumping on the pangender bandwagon! I don't expect you to. And frankly, I am surprised that you were serious when you suggested I involve myself with your campaign.

    After everything and my responding to you time and again, you still don't value my difference of opinion enough to respect that it is in fact different. Different than yours which evidently = WRONG in your eyes. Which is clearly UNACCEPTABLE to someone like you.

  • @FinalJusticeMovement

    Oh boy... and I thought we had reached the point of agree to disagree!

    Nothing I said to you changed your view on pangender or homosexuality. You have your strong opinions and that is fine. You are entitled to believe whatever you want.

    WHY on Earth would I support your message? A message that goes against my identity, my sexuality, my being?! What's not to '"understand" about that?

    I listened to your views and I respect your position to have & express them.

  • Wow... And I thought you wanted me to "understand" you.

    Yet... you're not willing to TRY and understand those on the

    opposite side of your dogmatic position.

    But then again, that goes with the territory of homosexualism.

    I know there is no monolithic group of people, but by your response

    just now, it's quite obvious that you justify the general consensus

    of the majority, and I thank YOU for proving my point yet once again.

    The truth never fails. (Hey... we TRIED, right?)

    --The Final Justice

  • @FinalJusticeMovement

    Haha. Nice try.

    I'll leave that cause to you. Much like you disagree with mine... I am lacking belief in your message.

    Oh, and the "kitchenware", so I wouldn't have anything to bring to the table.

    Thanks anyway.

  • That is very much what I look forward to, CM.

    And if you truly feel as you do -- "There are good PEOPLE, there are

    bad PEOPLE, and there are PEOPLE who make mistakes. Of ALL kinds." --

    ...then maybe you can help by campaigning against the global

    institutionalization of misandry and the destruction of the male gender

    (which, in hindsight, leads to the destruction of the human race).

    Why not give it a try? Think about it.

    --The Final Justice

  • @FinalJusticeMovement

    I never meant to imply anything of that nature. Emotion, Care, and Nurture are qualities that any HUMAN BEING is capable of, regardless of their sex.

    I would never put blame on someones gender or sexual orientation for their actions. There are good PEOPLE, there are bad PEOPLE, and there are PEOPLE who make mistakes. Of ALL kinds.

    I hope your truths bring you what it is you hope to achieve in life.

    Take Care.
