Identifying yourself.

My apologise for not updating very much this month. I've been having a weird form of writing block, where, although I am capable of writing my thoughts down, writing them coherently is another matter. I'm tempted to say I'm suffering from a jabir penalty, but I have yet to find myself building wonders that break the laws of reality, so I don't think it really applies. This means I have a number of posts floating around in draft form, waiting to  be made understandable. This is not one of them.

Gender is a slightly weird issue for me. I'm not talking about physical sex, which is a whole other can of worms, but rather the self-identification as a man or a woman, or as both, or as neither. Most people gender's are the same as their physical sex.

The thing is, I don't actually know how to identify as either. I know people do, but I can't work out why I would identify as either a man or a woman. The concept is simply meaningless to me. Technically I guess this makes me agender, although I'm not quite sure. And actually, I'm fine that. Self-identifying as neither male or female is fine by me.

The problem is that this is another way that I don't understand other people. Most people identify with something that I don't have any internal understanding of at all. It isn't like how I don't like the taste of alcohol but can understand how people do, since I have things I like the taste of myself and can understand how other people may enjoy different drinks to me. In this case, it is like I do not even have a sense of taste.

The purpose of this post is therefore to ask people who do have this sense what makes you identify with the gender you do?
