How We/I Got Here, Part 1

 


I can use this graphic to talk about many many things. I will. Roberta has not ceased to think, and her thoughts include many sources. The basis of this brainstorming device goes all the way back to college, when I did my English honors thesis on two books, Fitzgerald’s Tender is the Night and Virginia Woolf’s To the Lighthouse. I regarded them as equal works of genius. In studying them I was examining the difference between male and female experiences of time, one not better than the other but distinctly different. I got two female graders in an era when it was offensively incorrect to posit any difference between male and female but genitalia. I was denied honors on account of my ignorant perspective.

We’ve come full circle. I will write more. I believe history suggests I was right then, and I have transitioned because I accept there is no future before us and the time-present mentality of the female is vitally important to my survival and my sense of security and peace of mind right now.

Contemplate the graphic. If you want to plug in dates on the timeline, try 1912 and 2021. There are other ways to do it. But these dates are a start.

  Libeled Statesman Rep. Adam Schiff (D, CA) An official determination has been made by the Independent Fact Checkers of the Meta Stasis Corp. that an insinuation about ties between Rep. Schiff and deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein is FALSE. Should have known it was all hooey when they said it was the FBI that was investigating the congressman’s emails.

This tweet:  Are we clear? Here’s the real truth about the impeccable personal life of Rep. Schiff, courtesy of Wikipedia: You can see a moment of the man’s perfect marriage captured photographically right before your eyes. And who but a manly-type manly man could compete in marathons and like that? Where could he possibly

Alive and dead. Simultaneously. Until you open the box and choose. How did I get here? Crossing the gender line for good and all. Truthfully, I was always both. Never homosexual but always ambiguous in behavioral terms. I have never seduced a female. They have always seduced me. The celebrity I was most mistaken for was Bowie, another ambiguous character women couldn’t resist. I don’t think this is terribly unusual. Everyone is some combination of male and female. And everyone is full time in the business of suppressing the other sex that resides within them. Not talking about sexual preference here. That’s pretty hard-wired from childhood. I’m talking about soul identity, which is why our current controversies are so clumsy and confused. Age is a factor that drives the sexes together via fading hormones, as women become more visibly mannish, even growing mustaches and sometimes beards, men growing man boobs (moobs!) and gradually losing their physical courage and sexual desire.
