Better stop, or you'll turn into a girl!" //<br /><br />Now, that statement sums up what's wrong with our culture's view of both sex and gender. Woow!<br /><br />I get the pagan connection. A lot of "pagan" religions had a much more open attitude towards gender diversity, the shamans being the bridges between heaven and earth, male and female, any opposites, actually. I guess we are the present day shamans!Jack Molayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03629363646482611722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472400923228993687.post-65225388605322313472016-12-03T00:10:18.175-08:002016-12-03T00:10:18.175-08:00Ny crossdreaming began when my father, on a walk w...Ny crossdreaming began when my father, on a walk with me when I was three, stopped and said "I understand you've been playing with yourself down there. Better stop, or you'll turn into a girl!" A straight sexologist might say, at this point, aha! an implanted fetish. Well, maybe; but if the seed was planted at that point, it certainly fell on fertile ground. My own conclusion is that the feminine is the basic sex, while masculinity is a trope devised to enter genetic diversity. However, Nature, for whatever reaons, has designed some males to take the journey back into femininity, and I was tapped for this destiny. Could be I am integrating my crossdreaming with my Pagan religious temperament. If so, what can I say? It feels very integrative. Keep on doing what you do!

I struck up a brief convo with you as I was first figuring stuff out, and found you as a result of my searching for support. You were super cool and supportive, obviously, and those first steps have led me to my current state, which is okay. In the good way. I've always looked in to read your well researched and thought out entries, catching up as needs be, and you're always a great read. So, basically, fangirl gushing over, keep up the good work and all that.the ghosthttp://theghostsjourney.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
